Amanda Shires - When You Need A Train It Never Comes Lyrics
I was dreaming I was tied to a train track twisting in the sun*Burning up hoping the trains hadn't quit rollingI was ready for it to be doneBut when you need a train it never comesI woke up to you wearing your winter coatYou're leaving everything here but your phoneAnd I leaned out the window but the tracks belowWere quiet, calm, and coldWhen you need a train it never comesWhen you need a train it never comesThe union pacific is due for a visitAnd believe me I got a planBut the plan's no good without the trainAnd when you need a train it never comesWhen you need a train it never comesStanding in the kitchen with all the dirty dishesYou left a lot of things here undoneThe washer's leaking and the porch light's brokenThings you said you'd get around toI could use a distraction and the noise of the engineIts rumblin? would at least be a breakFrom these thoughts screaming and your voice hauntingThe only thing louder is trainsThe only thing louder is trainsThe union pacific is due for a visitAnd believe me I got a planBut the plan's no good without the trainAnd when you need a train it never comesWhen you need a train it never comesCrying in the sweater you gave me in this weather-What am I supposed to do?You can't leave me with your things as some sort of tradeCuz you're wanting something newIt's mean and it's cruel.The union pacific is due for a visitAnd believe me I got a planBut the plan's no good without the trainAnd when you need a train it never comesWhen you need a train it never comes
