I'm running through the night Just going through the dark Where do these two rails go? I am a midnight freight train I keep my lights off So no one knows I'm here I'll keep going til tomorrow dawns Just what sort of town will I arrive in? I hope the town is full of smiles, more than yesterday's was I hope the town is greener Than the one I was born in And that the wind carries the voices of families through the park What am I carrying? The truth is, even I don't know I just run, and someone's waiting for me It seems to be something really important When I go through a town And am almost seen by a child Who got up to go to the bathroom I hold my breath so he doesn't notice me - goodbye I hope the town hasn't a single sorrow in the sky I imagine it today as I'm racing along I hope the town has no hatred in its stars And that a gentle song is playing somewhere
