Downtown train
Outside another yellow moonPunched a hole in the nighttime, yesI climb through the window and down the streetShining like a new dimeThe downtown trains are fullWith all those Brooklyn girlsThey try so hard to break out of their little worlds
You wave your hand and they scatter like crowsThey have nothing that will ever capture your heartThey're just thorns without the roseBe careful of them in the darkOh if I was the oneYou chose to be your only oneOh baby can't you hear me now
Will I see you tonightOn a downtown trainEvery night its just the sameYou leave me lonely, nowI know your window and I know its lateI know your stairs and your doorwayI walk down your street and past your gateI stand by the light at the four wayYou watch them as they fallThey stay at the carnivalBut they'll never win you back
Will I see you tonightOn a downtown trainWhere every night its just the sameYou leave me lonelyWill I see you tonightOn a downtown trainAll of my dreams just fall like rainAll upon a downtown train
