Train in the Distance
Don Henley

When I was a young boy

Roamin' on the railroad tracks

Put copper pennies on the rails

Locomotive come and squash 'em flat

We'd run to fetch 'em back

We'd run to fetch 'em back

Summer nights at Gran-ma's house

Cozy in my bed

Dreams of far-off places and other lives to be led

Swirling in my head

Swirling in my head

And there's a train in the distance

There's a whistle calling

There's a train in the distance

Silver moonlight falling

Now I am a grown man

Turning in my sleep

Debts and obligations

Family ties run deep

Promises to keep

Promises to keep

But there's a train in the distance

There's a whistle calling

There's a train in the distance

There's a light rain falling

You can ride that train to the far end of creation

Away from everything and everyone you know

You better make friends with your angels and your demons

They will be riding with you wherever you, may go

But, you have to go

There's a train in the distance

There's a whistle calling

There's a train in the distance

Autumn leaves are falling
