It's an unfinished life that I find lies before me An open-ended dream and I don't want to wake I've crossed so many rivers in search of crystal fountains I've found the truest paths always lead through mountains I've seen water on the sky and fire burning on the lake You said to me "I cannot make you happy like a wounded bird You must find the strength to fly Time can paint the treetops with colors of the rainbow But you cannot find the end, no matter how you try" It's a journey with my soul that I am taking One that only goes form the cradle to the grave Going 'round in circles like painted dancing horses Up and down we ride on the wooden courses And light from a lover's eyes is all that I can save You said to me "I cannot make you happy like a wounded bird You must find the strength to fly Time can paint the treetops with colors of the rainbow But you cannot find the end, no matter how you try" So I'll take the day and run out across the open fields Where the grass grows high and the shadows fall Where my eyes can see all the colors in the air So quiet that the wind whistles in my hair And takes the rising dust and carries it away

Train of Love Lyrics [Chorus] Train of love's a-coming, big black wheels a-humming People waiting at the station, happy hearts are drumming Trainman tell me maybe, ain't you got my baby Every so often everybody's baby gets the urge to roam But everybody's baby but mine's coming home [Verse 1] Now stop your whistle blowing, because I got ways of knowing Your bringing other people's lovers, but my own keeps going Train of love's deceiving, when she's not gone she's leaving Every so often everybody's baby gets the urge to roam But everybody's baby but mine's coming home Train of love's now hasting, sweethearts standing waiting Here and there and everywhere, they're going to be embracing Trainman tell me maybe, ain't you got my baby Every so often everybody's baby gets the urge to roam But everybody's baby but mine's coming home [Chorus] Train of love's a-leaving, leaving my heart grieving But early or late, I sit and wait, because I'm still believing We'll walk away together, though I may wait forever Every so often everybody's baby gets the urge to roam But everybody's baby but mine's coming home
