Downtown Train

Lyrics

Outside another yellow moon
 Punched a hole in the nighttime, yes
 Climb through your window and down the street
 I'm shining like a new dime
 The downtown trains are full
 With all of those Brooklyn girls
 They try so hard
 To break out of their little worlds
 You wave your hands and they scatter like crows
 They have nothing that can capture your heart
 They're just thorns without the rose
 Be careful of them in the dark
 If I was the one
 You chose to be your only one
 Baby, can't you hear me?
 Can't you hear me now?
 Will I see you tonight
 On a downtown train?
 Every night, it's just the same
 You leave me lonely now
 I know your window and I know it's late
 I know your stairs and your doorway
 Walk down your street and past your gate
 Stand by the light at the four-way
 You watch them as they fall
 They all have heart attacks
 They stay at the carnival
 But they'll never win you back
 Will I see you tonight
 On a downtown train?
 Every night, it's just the same
 You leave me lonely
 Will I see you tonight
 On a downtown train?
 All of my tears just fall like rain
 All upon the downtown train
