Just Can't Take a Train (Album Version)

Just Can't Take a Train - Dusty Drake

Last thing on your lips were mine

Last thing in my arms was you running blind

So you can see how it might have caught me

A little off guard

That some 3 a m train left for Denver in the rain

With you and my heart

And I just can't take a train

I just can't take the whistle or the wheels

That lonely sound

Running out on cold rails of steel

I just can't take the leavin'

Or you not leaving looking back

And to this day I just can't take a train

There's something 'bout those stations late at night

The way that silver arrow cuts a dawn horizon

Just like a knife it reminds me of you

And that night we broke through the ice

Colorado all aboard

You rolled out like a storm

Without goodbye

Now I just can't take a train

I just can't take the whistle or the wheels

That lonely sound running out

On cold rails of steel

I just can't take the leavin'

Or you not leaving looking back

And to this day I just can't take a train

You could've woke me up and said I'm sorry

But this is how it's got to be

'Cause a one way rail way nowhere

Is such a lonely way to leave

I just can't take the leavin' then

Or you not even looking back

And to this day I just can't take a train

Oh to this day I just can't take a train
