lyrics

"The Train Song (Never Weigh Me Down)"

I picked you up at that train station,
On 2nd & King,
No time was wasted,
You smelled like campfires and nicotine,
Didn't have to ask,
I knew where you'd been.

You said things have been a mess,
And could you have a place to rest?

(Chorus)
I said come with me,
To my place in the sky,
Where clouds await,
You're welcome to stop by.
Because you'll never weigh me down,
No you'll never weigh me down...

And on that cloud we made our confessions,
Curled together,
Weightless
We rested,
You said I'd lived inside your dreams,
I said things are never quite what they seem.

But with you times' not allowed,
So my head stays in the clouds.

(Chorus 2)
And so I'll stay,
At my place in the sky,
Where clouds await,
You're welcome to stop by,
Because you'll never weigh me down,
No you'll never weigh me down.
Becuase you'll never weight me down,
No you'll never weigh me down.
