Downtown Train

Outside another yellow moon

Has punched a hole in the nighttime, yes

I climb through the window and down to the street

I'm shining like a new dime

The downtown trains are full with all those Brooklyn girls

They try so hard to break out of their little worlds

You wave your hand and they scatter like crows

They have nothing that will ever capture your heart

They're just thorns without the rose

Be careful of them in the dark

Oh, if I was the one

You chose to be your only one

Oh, baby, can't you hear me now?

Can't you hear me now?

Will I see you tonight

On a downtown train?

Every night is just the same

You leave me lonely now

I know your window and I know it's late

I know your stairs and your doorway

I walk down your street and past your gate

I stand by the light at the four way

You watch them as they fall

Oh, baby, they all have heart attacks

They stay at the carnival

But they'll never win you back

Will I see you tonight

On a downtown train?

Every night, every night is just the same

Oh, baby

Will I see you tonight

On a downtown train?

All of my dreams, they fall like rain

Oh, baby, on a downtown train

Will I see you tonight

On a downtown train?

Every night, every night is just the same

Oh, baby

Will I see you tonight

On a downtown train?

All of my dreams just fall like rain

All on a downtown train

All on a downtown train

All on a downtown train

All on a downtown train
