lirik lagu nanci griffith - southbound train
i’m sitting on a southbound train,
staring at the sky.
i’m thinking of my childhood
and i’m trying not to cry;
while a stranger sleeps against me,
and it feels like i’m his wife.
the towns and cities flutter past
like the pages of my life.
my heart is on the baggage-rack,
it’s heavy as can be.
i wish that i could find someone
who would carry it for me;
just to pay it some attention
and to handle it with care
because it has been dropped and
is in need of some repair.
some things i know, some things i guess.
some things i wish that i could learn to express,
like the way that i feel as i stare at the sky,
and i remember your voice, and the sound of goodbye.
maybe it’s the autumn chill,
maybe it’s the rain,
maybe i could wake the stranger
and ask him his name.
but my eyes, they would betray me,
and my words could not defend.
no, i must learn to wait my turn
before i love again.
some things i know, some things i guess.
some things i wish that i could learn to express,
like the way that i feel as i stare at the sky,
and i remember your voice, and the sound of goodbye.
