Poco
Every Time I Hear That Train
We've taken this road a thousand times
Rollin' away past the country line
To a place therewaiting for the better every time
All the promises made and the ones that were kept
Bind in this distance that won't let us forget
How far we've come from every turn
The bridges behind us the lessons we learned
No more lonely sundowns
No more days of dirty rain
No more nights of crying out load
Wishing it was some other way
Just a matter of a little more time
If you listen there's a signal in the night
Every time I hear that train
Running through my heart like a hurricane
And all the questions that still remain
Seem to find their answers here
Every time I hear that train
Red tile stretches from the mountains to the bay
Better hang on baby, it'll take your breath away
We know we belong here someday we're gonna stay
It'll take all I got to leave it all today
And the place where you loved me
There on the sand
On a hot night in August
Where it all began
Just a matter of a little more time
If you listen there's a signal in the night
