Westbound Train
The road was dark and long,
and you heard a hopeful song,
playing louder than any one you'd heard before.
Oh I know that song,
she used to sing to me all night long,
and when the music stopped by morning I was gone.
Now those songs escape my ear.
But to you they're ringing clear.
Oh that westbound train already passed me by,
and I know just why you'd want to hitch a ride oh.
Other trains'll be coming through,
and I'm-a gonna catch one too.
Yeah we do what we have to do.
And who'm I to say,
what you do along your way?
You said yourself this is a game you know how to play.
It ain't right, it ain't wrong.
But there's no sorrow in this song.

I knew it wouldn't be too long 'fore she moved on.
And I've moved on too.
I ain't got nothing but love for you.
Oh that westbound train already passed me by,
and I know just why you'd want to hitch a ride oh.
Other trains'll be coming through,
and I'm-a gonna catch one too.
Yeah we do what we have to do.
The Great Rearranger's changing everything again.
Thought you stranger when I knew you way back when.
We are older now and there's no need to pretend.
That anything we have in life means more than friends.
Oh that westbound train already passed me by,
and I know just why you'd want to hitch a ride oh.
Other trains'll be coming through,
and I'm-a gonna catch one too.
Yeah we do what we have to do.
