DOWNTOWN TRAIN - lyrics 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 Well, 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 only one To be your only one Can't you hear me now Can't you hear me now Will I see you tonight On a downtown train Every night ,every night it's just the same Oh You leave me lonely I know your window I know your door I know your stairs and your doorway I walk past your window and downtown street I stand by the light at the four way You watch them as they fall Oh baby, they all have heart attacks You wait at the carnival but they'll never win you back Will I see you tonight On a downtown train Every night, every night it's just the same Oh baby, you leave me lonely Will I see you tonight On a downtown train Every night, every night it’s just the same Oh baby, you leave me lonely Will I see you tonight On a downtown train Every night, every night it's just the same Oh baby, you leave me lonely Will I see you tonight On a downtown train Every night, every night it's just the same Oh baby, on a downtown train On a downtown train On a downtown train Oh baby, on a downtown train Oh baby, on a downtown train Oh baby, on a downtown train
