Lyrics

Train Song

[Verse 1: Feist]

Travelling north, travelling north to find you

Train wheels beating, wind in my eyes

Don't even know what I'll find when I get to you

Call out your name, love, don't be surprised

[Chorus: Feist & Ben Gibbard]

It's so many miles and so long since I've left you

Don't even know what I'll find when I get to you

But suddenly now, I know where I belong

It's many hundred miles, and it won't be long

[Verse 2: Ben Gibbard]

Nothing at all in my head to say to you

Only the beat of the train I'm on

Nothing I've learned all my life on the way to you

One day our love was over and gone

[Chorus]

It's so many miles and so long since I've met you

Don't even know what I'll say when I get to you

But suddenly now, I know where I belong

It's many hundred miles, and it won't be long

[Verse 3: Feist & Ben Gibbard]

What will I do if there's someone there with you?

Maybe someone you've always known

How do I know I can come and give to you

Love with no warning and find you alone?

[Chorus]

It's so many miles and so long since I've met you

Don't even know what I'll find when I get to you

But suddenly now, I know where I belong

It's many hundred miles, and it won't be long

[Outro]

It won't be long, it won't be long

It won't be long
