Royal Station 4/16

[Verse 1]

Well, it's so hard

To listen to these trains

Outside my window

Here it comes again

And it's calling me, begging me

"Follow me down the track"

And it moans so dark and low

"Baby ain't comin' back"

[Chorus]

Well, I refuse to believe

It could happen to me and you

But it's lonesome and it's hard

And it's true

[Verse 2]

I got this whiskey

To take care of my lips

I got these long cool steel strings

At my fingertips

And I ain't got nothing

I ain't got nothing to soothe my aching soul

Except this screeching and screaming iron

To tell me where I ought to go

[Chorus]

Well, I refuse to believe

It could happen to me and you

But it's lonesome and it's hard

And it's true

And I hear the train sigh

And idle down below

Why your love is so sweet and wild

Is something I'll never know

[Bridge]

And it sounds like crying

And it sounds like letting go

Oh, breathing and lying

Sinking and dying slow

And I watch from my window

Touching the cold glass sky

And as the train rolls down the track

I say

Goodbye

[Outro]

You want to take me home

And I wanna go

I wanna, wanna, wanna go

People wanna know, people wanna know

Take, take, take, take me home
