Lyrics

Rain Train


I hate every time you send me away to battle
You tell me it?s all over, now I have to go
I wish you didn?t think we were just so-so
I?d like to sip your love slowly like champagne
I?d do anything to love you and just remain

You called my number, my sweet but fickle war lover
I?m feeling flung, from the top of a building
I mumble baby talk, watch the clock and try to take cover
I?m sent to a war with salty drops of caring, dripping

So sad and in pain, I?m riding the rain train
Baby you left me scatter-brained
And like a train carrying soldiers from a lost love war
My tears will gently flow to a drier shore

My eyes were glued so tight to the cold window
I?m back, a wounded soldier, I was finally returning
Finished were the days of isolation and longing
I would have renamed that station, crazy lover?s lane
You needed me like a new cut in an addict?s vein

You say I?m the real trooper for your unending pleasures
I?m addicted to you, your song and your taste
Like returning from battle with lost war treasures
And now finally I?m going to be your keepsake

Now happy, tears in vain, I?m riding that rain train
Hoping not to fall hard so hard for you, and end slain
And like a train carrying soldiers from a lost love war
My tears will gently flow to a drier shore

You now say it?s a bad dream, and it was a mistake
But I couldn?t get out of the ticket line, oh I was crazed
With early morning fog eyes, blurred up sunrise, I was running late
It was boarding time for the war, again, and there was no escape

My lovesick seawater sprinkles were surrendered
The tears choo-chooed down my clownish face
Like crystal running dots in a child?s race
Like scared running animals in a hot burning forest
I cried for us, like a mime, laughing at a tourist

I?m making sounds like rattles from a dying man?s throat
The burping train yells hello into my open sore
My juvenile babble?s like a silly crying corps
But her goodbye is now silent, sealed by the heavy doors

On the rain train
I?m riding the rain train, again
Baby you left me feeling so sad, again
I?m riding the rain train
