Lyrics

Leave me on the train
We’re burning eighty proof
Nowhere else to turn
Nothing left to hide it
All I see’s a stain
The kind you can’t remove
Like a picture to burn
When you’ve been blinded

And you want more
You need more

Sleepin’ through the rain
Helps stave off the blues
But slippin’ off those chains
Will not untie me
‘Cause it’s a losing game
Asking for a truce
When every slam of the screen door
Here reminds me

That you want more
You need more

But keep me off the train
That’s headed some place close to you
'Cause the heartbeat of a track
Is what I trust
And I can explain my fettered,
Stubborn point of view
I wander more than lust
I wander more than lust

Leave me on the train
We’re having straight vermouth
I used to like to knock it
Until I tried it
‘Cause it can help explain
Not having a troubled youth
And still not knowing
Just how quite to define this

When you want more
You need more

But keep me off the train
That’s headed some place close to you
'Cause the heartbeat of a track
Is what I trust
And I can explain my fettered,
Stubborn point of view
I wander more than lust
I wander more than lust

So, keep me off that line
Every night of my life
And just as sure as an eagle flies
I’m not one for hellos or goodbyes

So, keep me off the train
That’s headed some place close to you
'Cause the heartbeat of a track
Is all I trust
And I can explain my fettered,
Stubborn point of view
I wander more than lust
I wander more than lust
I wander more than lust
