follow that train

well i dreamt you were a train

that i could not catch

i threw off my heels

and ran barefoot down the tracks

i reached for the last car

but you were movin' way too fast

i woke from my dream

in a cloud of sweat and steam

and i cried

follow that train

no matter how far

through the sun

snow and rain

through the light and the dark

'cause you stole my heart

stole my

follow that train

follow that train

like the sound of a lonesome whistle

half a world away

i'm haunted by the night

ever since that day

you stood there in the kitchen

for the words i couldn't say

i didn't know how

but i sure as hell do now

and i should

follow that train

no matter how far

through the sun

snow and rain

through the light and the dark

'cause you stole my heart

stole my

follow that train

follow that train

the thing about dreams

is they keep comin' back

all those might-have-beens

are just pennies on the track

so follow that train

no matter how far

through the sun

snow and rain

through the light and the dark

'cause you stole my heart

oh

follow that train

no matter how far

through the sun

snow and rain

through the light and the dark

'cause you stole my heart

stole my

follow that train

follow that train

yeah i'll follow that train
