[Vesre 1]
Watching the long faces riding this rundown track
And the lost places from a dream that never brings them back
And the sad truth is nothing but a cold hard fact

[Chorus]
I'm riding the blue train over the miles yet to cover
A ghost in a hurry to fade
I'm taking it one way to nowhere
Afraid you might be there to find me inside this blue train

[Verse 2]
Counting the burned bridges, trailing this rusted wreck
As our back pages scatter in the dust we left
Like a pearl necklace falling from around my neck

[Chorus]
I'm riding the blue train over the miles yet to cover
A ghost in a hurry to fade
I'm taking it one way to nowhere
Afraid you might be there to find me inside this blue train

[Bridge]
Away down the low road
A ticket to an empty room
A rendezvous unknown

[Chorus]
I'm riding the blue train over the miles yet to cover
A ghost in a hurry to fade
I'm taking it one way to nowhere
Afraid you might be there to find me inside this blue train

[Chorus]
I'm riding the blue train over the miles yet to cover
A ghost in a hurry to fade
I'm taking it one way to nowhere
Afraid you might be there to find me inside this blue train
