Taking it easy, taking it slow
Riding home to lay my body down...
Thought about it long enough
to let it slip away, yeah...
But I feel like a stranger here today
Lost in who across the water
Took me far away from home
It seems it ain't enuff
to get down on your knees and pray, yeah
I've been waiting for the sun to shine
'thou the rain took my spirit away
I'll take the sun before the rain anyday, oh Lord
Call on the northwinds when any clouds gets in my way
Nothin' ever changes, the song remains the same
Feel I got a one way ticket,
Oh I'm sittin', sittin' on an empty train...
It's been a such a long time, on a black and ribbon road
Taking it easy, living from day to day...
Sometimes it ain't so good when you find it so high
riding on the northwind,
you'll never get the feeling to try...
I'll take the sun before the rain anyday, oh Lord
Call on the northwinds when any clouds gets in my way
Nothin' ever changes, the song remains the same
Feel I got a one way ticket,
Oh, I'm sittin', sittin' on an empty train...
Northwinds make it oh, so easy
Make me live my life too slow...
It seems it ain't enuff
to get down on your knees and pray
I've been waiting for the sun to shine
thou the rain took my spirit away
I'll take the sun before the rain anyday,
Call on the northwinds when any clouds gets in my way
Nothin' ever changes, the song remains the same
Feel I got a one-way ticket,
Oh, I'm sittin', sittin', sittin' on an empty train...
So the tell how long has the train been gone?
So the tell how long has the train been gone?
So the tell how long has the train been gone?
So the tell how long has the train been gone?
So the tell how long has the train been gone?
I even missed an empty train...
