Tom Waits — Downtown Train

[Verse 1] Outside another yellow moon Punched a hole in the nighttime, yes I climb through the window and down to the street I'm shining like a new dime The downtown trains are full With all those Brooklyn girls They try so hard to break out of their little worlds [Verse 2] You wave your hand and they scatter like crows They have nothing that will ever capture your heart They're just thorns without the rose Be careful of them in the dark Oh if I was the one you chose to be your only one Oh baby can't you hear me now? Can't you hear me now? [Chorus] Will I see you tonight On a downtown train? Every night its just the same You leave me lonely, now [Verse 3] I know your window and I know it's late I know your stairs and your doorway I walk down your street and past your gate I stand by the light at the four-way You watch 'em as they fall Oh baby, they all have heart attacks They stay at the carnival But they'll never win you back [Chorus] Will I see you tonight On a downtown train? Where every night, every night is just the same Oh baby Will I see you tonight On a downtown train? All of my dreams just fall like rain Oh, baby, on a downtown train [Solo] [Chorus] Will I see you tonight On a downtown train? Where every night, every night is just the same Oh baby Will I see you tonight On a downtown train? All of my dreams just fall like rain Oh, on a downtown train Oh, on a downtown train Oh, on a downtown train Oh, on a downtown train Downtown train
