Black Train Lyrics

Can"t you hear the whistling wind?
Can"t you feel it"s chill on your skin?
Can"t you hear the train bell ringing?
Can"t you hear the song it"s singing?
Can"t you see my traveling clothes
Wrapped around me as I go?
Can"t you see that plume of steam rising,
Heralding that train arriving?
Can"t you smell that bitter perfume
Wash us clean in the twilight gloom?
Can"t you feel the fire that"s burning
To carry me to another turning?

Don"t be scared to see me go.
You"ll see me before you know.
When that train at last comes for you,
You know I"ll be waiting for you.
