Born On A Train Lyrics

Some roads are only seen at night.
Ghost roads, nothing but neon signs.
But some nights the neon gas gets free
And turns into walking dead like me.
[ Lyrics from: http://www.cloverlyrics.com/e78300-the_magnetic_fields~born_on_a_train_lyrics.html ]
And I've been making promises I know I'll never keep.
One of these days I'm gonna leave you in your sleep.
I'll have to go when the whistle blows, the whistle knows my name.
Baby, I was born on a train.

I know that you were never young,
And I know you prob'ly won't get old.
But honey, nobody's gonna hurt you anymore.
And nobody's gonna make you wanna die.

And I've been making promises I know I'll never keep.
One of these days I'm gonna leave you in your sleep.
I'll have to go when the whistle blows, the whistle knows my name.
Baby, I was born on a train.

I'll go some cold and gray morning.
And you won't remember anything.
But some people don't believe in time.
And some of us don't believe in life.

And I've been making promises I know I'll never keep.
One of these days I'm gonna leave you in your sleep.
I'll have to go when the whistle blows, the whistle knows my name.
Baby, I was born on a train.

Baby, I was born on a train...
Baby, I was born on a train...
