The train is leaving town now
Just as day begins,
I’ve been playing in a long-game
A long-game no one wins.
I’m sitting facing backwards
Staring at the day
And now it’s raining on the window
Trying to wash my sins away.
Keep this train rolling
Keep it rolling straight and true
In the reflection in the window – I can see
The face of Lucy Blue
The landscape keeps on changing
I see nothing that I like
There’s the sunshine and thunder
The mountain’s lightning strike
Sit me forward facing
I see nothing that is new
In the reflection in the window – I can see
The face of Lucy Blue
Get me know-where right on schedule
Across the desert in the sun
When I reach my destination
I’ll know I’ve just begun
Reflections keep bending
The light keeps pushing through
In the reflection in the window – I can see
The face of Lucy Blue
Let me down slowly
I wish my memories were few
In the reflection in the window – I can see
The face of Lucy Blue
The train is leaving town now
Just as day begins…
