Train Lyrics

Well the sun's coming up, and the dust it is clearing
Down the line I am hearing there's a train coming in
I left my home and my girl, tried to find someplace better
oh but I never could forget her, so let this train take me home

CHORUS:
Oh please my darling forgive what I've done
I've found nothing, just some big lonely world
So take me back please my lover, take me back please my lover
Took a train to discover I cannot be without you girl

I was young, I was green
Prone to foolish decisions
At what I thought was ambition and a will to be free

yeah but freedom's just some word
Don't believe has a meaning
So on this train I am leaving trying to get me back home

CHORUS

So pour another cup of coffee
Pretty soon I'll be leaving
I ain't done petty thieving
Hitching rides and drinking beer

And I'm so tired of having friends
Just to keep out of prison
Oh well this life really isn't all I hoped it would be

CHORUS

Took a train to discover I cannot a be without you girl

There Is a Light That Never Goes Out (The Smiths cover)

Well the sun's coming up, and the dust it is clearing 
Down the line I am hearing there's a train coming in 
I left my home and my girl, tried to find someplace better 
oh but I never could forget her, so let this train take me home

CHORUS: 
Oh please my darling forgive what I've done 
I've found nothing, just some big lonely world 
So take me back please my lover, take me back please my lover 
Took a train to discover I cannot be without you girl

I was young, I was green 
Prone to foolish decisions 
At what I thought was ambition and a will to be free

yeah but freedom's just some word 
Don't believe has a meaning 
So on this train I am leaving trying to get me back home

CHORUS

So pour another cup of coffee 
Pretty soon I'll be leaving 
I ain't done petty thieving 
Hitching rides and drinking beer

And I'm so tired of having friends 
Just to keep out of prison 
Oh well this life really isn't all I hoped it would be

CHORUS

Took a train to discover I cannot a be without you girl

Keep it true to the song

Fix what’s wrong, but don’t rewrite what the artist wrote. Stick to the official released version — album booklet, label site, verified lyric video, etc. If you’re guessing, pause and double-check.

Respect the structure

Songs have rhythm. Pages do too. Leave line breaks where they belong. Don’t smash things together or add extra empty space just for looks.

Punctuation counts (but vibe-editing doesn’t)

Correct typos? Yes. Re-punctuating a whole verse because it ‘looks better’? Probably not. Keep capitalization and punctuation close to the official source.

Don’t mix versions

If you’re editing the explicit version, keep it explicit. If it’s the clean version, keep it clean. No mashups.

Let the lyrics be lyrics

This isn’t the place for interpretations, memories, stories, or trivia — that’s what comments are for. Keep metadata, translations, and bracketed stage directions out unless they’re officially part of the song.

Edit lightly

If two lines are wrong… fix the two lines. No need to bulldoze the whole page. Think ‘surgical,’ not ‘remix.’

When in doubt, ask the crowd

Not sure what they’re singing in that fuzzy bridge? Drop a question in the comments and let the music nerds swarm. Someone always knows.
