《Southbound Train》歌词

[00:00:00] Southbound Train - Nanci Griffith (南西·葛瑞芬)

[00:00:16] I'm sitting on a southbound train staring at the sky

[00:00:25] I'm thinking of my childhood and I'm trying not to cry

[00:00:34] While a stranger sleeps against me and it feels like I'm his wife

[00:00:43] The towns and cities flutter past like the pages of my life

[00:01:00] My heart is on the baggage rack it's heavy as can be

[00:01:09] I wish that I could find someone who would carry it for me

[00:01:17] Just to pay it some attention and to handle it with care

[00:01:26] Because it has been dropped and is in need of some repair

[00:01:38] Some things I know some things I guess

[00:01:47] Some things I wish that I could learn to express

[00:01:55] Like the way that I feel as I stare at the sky

[00:02:07] And I remember your voice and the sound of goodbye

[00:02:45] Maybe it's the autumn chill maybe it's the rain

[00:02:55] Maybe I should wake the stranger and ask him his name

[00:03:02] But my eyes they would betray me and my words could not defend

[00:03:11] No I must learn to wait my turn before I love again

[00:03:23] Some things I know some things I guess

[00:03:33] Some things I wish that I could learn to express

[00:03:40] Like the way I feel as I stare at the sky

[00:03:52] And I remember your voice and the sound of goodbye
