Leaving Train Lyrics

Cover art for Leaving Train lyrics by Gillian Welch

I LOVE this song, one of my favorite Gillian Welch songs - I looked up these lyrics on another site and some lyrics were different.

Instead of 'And the breathless hours, on the sleeping plane' it said it was

"And the breathless house, on the sleeping plain"

And I much prefer the latter, I think it makes a lot more sense.
