[Verse] That old train whistleâs cryinâ, Crossinâ river wide and cold, Carries dreams and heartache, Stories that time wonât hold. [Pre-Chorus] Storm clouds rollinâ, thunder moaninâ low, Echoes of a love I used to know. [Chorus] Hear that whistle wailinâ, through the night so deep, Bringing back the memories I canât keep. Carryinâ me over waters dark and wide, That trainâs rollinâ with the ghosts I hide. Oh, that whistle, oh, that train, Blowinâ through my soul like a midnight rain. [Verse] Riverâs runninâ wild and restless, Like the tears I never cried, Every note is pain and promise, Like a shadow on the tide. [Pre-Chorus] Storm clouds rollinâ, thunder moaninâ low, Echoes of a love I used to know. [Chorus] Hear that whistle wailinâ, through the night so deep, Bringing back the memories I canât keep. Carryinâ me over waters dark and wide, That trainâs rollinâ with the ghosts I hide. Oh, that whistle, oh, that train, Blowinâ through my soul like a midnight rain. [Bridge] Rainâs pourinâ down, but Iâm holdinâ tight, To every shadow in that fading light. Whistle calls from the other side, Where all my restless dreams reside. [Chorus] Hear that whistle wailinâ, through the night so deep, Bringing back the memories I canât keep. Carryinâ me over waters dark and wide, That trainâs rollinâ with the ghosts I hide. Oh, that whistle, oh, that train, Blowinâ through my soul like a midnight rain. [Outro] Blow, whistle, blow, through the storm and flame, Take my heart on that midnight train.
