You Can't Blame The Train

(앨범: Love Tracks - 1987)

Well, I got crazy yesterday and I called her to say
Please baby won't you come home tonight
I can't even trust my brain to get my heart in from the rain
I know that girl's a hurricane, in her own right

Then early this morning after she was going
I sat there in my chair all alone
Well I called my friend crying, and asked him why
That girl was always doing me so wrong

He said: "When the gates are all down and the signals are flashing
The whistle is screaming in vain
And you stay on the tracks, ignoring the facts
Well, you can't blame the wreck on the train
No, you can't blame the wreck on the train"

Well, how many times have I promised myself
Not to do the same thing as before
I swear I will leave it alone and believe it
Then I'll turn around and do it some more

Oh, fool me one time and it's shame on you
Fool me twice and it's shame on me
That's what my best friend warned me when I called him this morning
Then he reminded me

He said: "When the gates are all down and the signals are flashing
The whistle is screaming in vain
And you stay on the tracks, ignoring the facts
Well, you can't blame the wreck on the train
No, you can't blame the wreck on the train"

He said: "When the gates are all down and the signals are flashing
And the whistle is screaming in vain
And you stay on the tracks, ignoring the facts
Well, you can't blame the wreck on the train
No, you can't blame the wreck on the train
Man, you gotta quit blaming the train"
