I Miss a Lot of Trains

Tom T. Hall


When the train pulls in the station you'll be waiting by the track
You're havin' trouble sleepin' nights you want me to come back
But that old train will roll on by, you'll know I never came
While I sleep good and miss a lot of trains

I sleep good and I miss a lot of trains
That one way track to no man's love I'll never ride again
I used to lie awake at night callin' out your name
Now I sleep good and miss a lot of trains

Your standin' in the station I can see you in my mind
You think that I'll forgive again, but you're so wrong this time
Your sleepless eyes and selfish heart are waiting there in vain
While I sleep good and miss a lot of trains

I sleep good and I miss a lot of trains
That one way track to no man's love I'll never ride again
I used to lie awake at night callin' out your name
Now I sleep good and miss a lot of trains
