Train In The Distance Lyrics

Cover art for Train In The Distance lyrics by Paul Simon

its about the hopes of having found true love, once, that fade away after a while, to later on come to the realisation that while reality may have changed all meanings of a relationship, you can make amends, you can still adjust and go along nicely the way that love turned finally out, into something more like a presence, that is in the distance and that's dear, somehow comforting at the same time, like a train in the distance. Something that may feel far gone or, feels like its coming back nearer just as well...
