Train That Never Runs Lyrics by Bobby Bare
Album : I Hate Goodbyes/Ride Me Down Easy [RCA Victor]
Clean Lyric
Paragraph Lyric
(Jerry Foster - Bill Rice)

An empty railroad station is a lonely place to be
And a suitcase full of mem'ries is a heavy load to carry
I've got no destination no special place to be
I'm just waitin' for a train that never runs
Lord, I'm waitin' for a train that never comes.

Tears above my ticket on a train that goes nowhere
I paid the price with heartaches a fare that seem so unfair
The silence of the moment is the only sound I hear
I'm just waitin' for a train that never runs
Lord, I'm waitin' for a train that never comes.

Measured time and cross ties the train of love is gone
Down the tracks of yesterdays I see the rails at left on
My mind is just a depot where I wait all alone
I'm just waitin' for a train that never runs
Lord, I'm waitin' for a train that never comes...
