As the train Leaves the station And slowly pulls away So I leave here Back through the darkness From which I came But don't you cry now Don't cry mama Cause I'm not afraid Cause I can see the light Off in the distance And the tracks are already laid
It's been a long hard road That we've been travellin' on We shore gonna get there And it won't be long
Rain clouds above me They keep on pouring down I think they understand They're tryin' to wash Away the sorrow So that the sun can shine upon the land Through all of my life My fame and my riches Something's been missing That I could not find But this here's a train A train to glory Soon I'm gonna have me Have me peace of mind
It's been a long hard road That we've been travellin' on We're shore gonna get there And it won't be long
As the train Leaves the station And slowly pulls away So I leave here Back through the darkness From which I came
It's been a long hard road That we've been travellin' on We shore gonna get there And it won't be long
