Downtown Train

Outside another yellow moon

Has punched a hole in the nighttime

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 world



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

Oh, be careful of them in the dark



And if i was the one

You chose to be your only one

Oh baby now, can't you hear me now



Will i see you tonight on a downtown train

Where 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 fourway



You watch them as they fall

Ooh, 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

Where every night, every night is just the same, you leave me lonely / will i see you tonight on a downtown train

Where every night, every night is just the same, all upon a downtown train



Will i see you tonight on a downtown train

Where every night, every night is just the same,

You leave me lonely

Will i see you tonight on a downtown train

Where all my dreams just fall like the rain,

All upon a downtown train
