I Often Dream of Trains

I often dream of trains when I'm alone

I ride on them into another zone

I dream of them constantly

Heading for paradise

Or Basingstoke or Reading



I often dream of trains when I'm awake

They ride along beside a frozen lake

And there in the buffet car

I wait for eternity

Or Basingstoke or Reading



I often dream of trains till it gets light

The summer turns to winter overnight

The leaves fall so suddenly

The sun sets at four o'clock

Exactly what I'm dreading



I often dream of trains when I'm with you

I wonder if you dream about them, too

Maybe we'll meet one night

Out in the corridor

I'm waiting for you, baby



Baby baby baby
