Woman On A Train

(album: Phantoms - 1984)

Pictures chase across the ceiling
As I try to sleep at night
There's a voice inside my darkness
Laughing at the life I've lost
(She's) no girl on pills in limbo
She's a woman on a train

With her senses sharpened by the warning cold
She brings me to memory
She flashed her lights, her mission bites
She flashed her lights
Across my desert mind (still no change in me)

(She's) no girl on pills in limbo
She's a woman on a train
She's here...
She's here...
The woman on a train...

And I will speak no words but the truth for her to hear
Hold her close... but never dare

(She's) no girl on pills in limbo
She's a woman on a train
She's here...
She's here...
The woman on a train...

A friend for life, for life and after
Woman on a train...

And I will speak no words but the truth for her to hear
She will speak for us both
She will speak for us all
Till I learn to care...

(Woman on a train)
She'll override my best intention
(Woman on a train)
Attack my weak deception
(Woman on a train)
A friend for life, for life and after
(Woman on a train)
I'll never catch her off her guard
(Woman on a train)
