THE ARCADE FIRE - BORN ON A TRAIN lyrics

rate me

[Magnetic Fields cover]

I know that you were never young

And I know you probably won't get old

But honey nobody's gonna hurt you anymore

And nobody's going to make you want to die

But I've been making promises I know I'll never keep

One of these days I'm gonna leave you in your sleep

I'll have to go when the whistle blows, the whistle knows my name

Baby, I was born on a train.

Some roads you only seen at night

Ghost roads nothing but neon signs.

But some nights the neon gas gets free

And turns into walking dead like me

But I've been making promises I know I'll never keep

One of these days I'm gonna leave you in your sleep

I'll have to go when the whistle blows, the whistle knows my name

Baby, I was born on a train.

I called one morning cold and grey,

You won't remember anything

Some of us don't believe in time,

And some of us don't believe in life

But I've been making promises I know I'll never keep

One of these days I'm gonna leave you in your sleep

I'll have to go when the whistle blows, the whistle knows my name

Baby, I was born on a train

Baby, I was born on a train

Baby, I was born on a train

Baby, I was born on a train

Baby, I was born on a train
