Now the night train is waitin' to take me away

And I'm still feelin' guilty 'cause you're wantin' me to stay

Well I know, how I know, it's harder on you

But then you said it yourself, "There's nothin' else we could do"

When the wheels start turnin', takin' me through the night

Out there in the darkness, there's a star shinin' bright

And it makes me feel better just to see it up there

Hope you're thinkin' about it, hope you know I still care

So goodnight, yeah goodnight

Goodnight train is gonna carry me home

So goodnight, yeah goodnight

Goodnight train is gonna carry me home

Now I know you've been waitin' but I'll be seein' you soon

Meanwhile I just lay here starin' at the moon

And a light made of silver, through my window it creeps

And the train keeps on rollin' and it just rocks me to sleep

So goodnight, yeah goodnight

Goodnight train is gonna carry me home

So goodnight, yeah goodnight

Goodnight train is gonna carry me home

So goodnight, yeah goodnight

Goodnight train is gonna carry me home

So goodnight, yeah goodnight

Goodnight train is gonna carry me home

Now from city to city, it's four hundred miles

And I'm bound to wake up every once in a while

And it's then that I call out to some higher power

And then I'll go back to sleep 'cause I'll be home in an hour

So goodnight, yeah goodnight

Goodnight train is gonna carry me home

So goodnight, yeah goodnight

Goodnight train is gonna carry me home

So goodnight, yeah goodnight

Goodnight train is gonna carry me home

So goodnight, yeah goodnight

Goodnight train is gonna carry me home

I'm goin' home tonight

I'm goin' home tonight

I'm goin' home tonight
