Trains Cry

I know how to hit the road
I know how to go it alone
Down some dark highway
But I, I ain't been here before
Some southern-bound platform
My love gone away

It's like somebody else is at the wheel
Driving five hundred tons of steel
And that's as half as heavy as my heart

And I can hear the trains cry
Now I finally know why
It's the most lonesome sound
Yeah I, I know why the trains cry
They're leaving with a goodbye
They can't just turn around
This, this is the life I picked
And this is the love I can give
But it's always heading out of town

Yeah, somebody else is at the wheel
Time like a thief, coming to steal it
Take me away from where you are

And I can hear the trains cry
Now I finally know why
It's the most lonesome sound
Yeah I, I know why the trains cry
They're leaving with a goodbye
They can't just turn around
No, they can't just turn around
I can't just turn around
