There Never Was a Train

[Verse 1]
Given up on traveling, it's driving me insane
Riding alone on a midnight train
Now a mind can wonder and that's far from being free
'Cause when that lonesome sunset whistle blows, this is where I'll be

[Verse 2]
I hopped a westbound for San Antone, from there to Santa Fe
And it's a thousand miles from there to home and there's a thousand things to say
About a man bound to ramble and a dream he's got to lose
That'll break this fever, set him free, and bring him home to you

[Chorus]
Somewhere I slipped off track
But the world keeps going by
But there never was a train that couldn't try

[Verse 3]
There'll be nobody waiting, my goodbyes are too long gone
From that moment at the station when I left from right to wrong
But now I finally nearly made it, it was a long uphill climb
To right back to where I started from, but I think I can this time

[Chorus]
Somewhere I slipped off track
But the world keeps going by
But there never was a train that couldn't try

[Outro]
Somewhere I slipped off track
I was thinking I could fly
But there never was a train that couldn't try
