Songtext von Train In The Distance

She was beutiful as southern skies The night he met her She was married to someone He was doggidly determined That he would get her He was old he was young From time to time he would tip his heart But each time she withdrew Everybody loves the sound of a train in the distance Everybody thinks its true Well eventually the boy the girl get married Sure enough they have a son And although both were occupied with the child she carried Dissagreements had begun And in a while it just fell apart It wasn't hard to do Two dissapointed believers Two people playing the game Negotiations and love songs Are often mistaken for one and the same Well the man and the woman They remain in contact Let us say its for the child With dissagrements about the meaning of a marriage contract Conversations hard and wild From time to time he would make her laugh She'd cook him a meal or two What is the point of this story? What information pertains? The thought that life could be better Is woven indelibly into our hearts and our brains Like a train in the distance
