Lyrics Train (Live) - Haze

I woke up early with the sun in my
Eyes and the dream still clear in my mind
I walked out of my life and out of town,
With my bags just as it started to rain
I sat right down by the railroad
Track just like it had been in the dream
I laid down my load, with nothing to lose and waited for the train

Now after a while my friend came by
Just to see what I was goin through
And we talked about the way everybody
Seemed to be waiting for something new
To come along and change the way we are & what we're gonna do
And after a while she sat right down there and started waiting too

A few days later folk were stopping by and some of them would stay
We had tents & fires & music &
Stuff the biggest party that you ever saw
Soon we were getting organized building homes & growing our food/
I thought we'd really found a new way
To live, a blueprint for a better way
& I got so busy that I almost forgot just what I was waiting for

A year has come & gone and you
Wouldn't believe just how things have changed
Everyday there's more people here I never knew so many felt the same
But still sometimes I think about
The dream & how my life would have been
On a rainy day in summertime waiting for the train

Now our kids have grown old and I'm
Getting tired as I look back on what we've done
We've schools & shops & doctors &
Things and a sense of who we are for sure
But there's still no sign of change in the
World or the things that we're hoping'll come
And sometimes I think maybe it's all inside what we're waiting for

In the dead of night I sat by the
Track all alone as the stars unfurled
I felt younger as the world grew old
And I don't think I'll be coming back
Put my ear to the ground and I heard a
Rumbling sound like thunder from another world
Then a blinding light and a screaming
Steam and the last thing I saw was the train
Coming down the track
