The Day We Caught the Train

I never saw it as the start

It's more a change of heart

Rapping on the windows, whistling down the chimney pot

Blowing off the dust in the room where I forgot

I laid my plansin solid rock

Stepping through the door like a troubadour

Whiling just an hour away

Looking at the trees on the roadside

Feeling it's a holiday

You and I should ride the coast

And wind up in our favourite coats just miles away

Roll a number, write another song

Like Jimmy heard the day he caught the train

Oh oh la la

Oh oh la la

Oh oh la la

Oh oh la la

He sipped another rum and coke

And told a dirty joke

Walking like Groucho, sucking on a number ten

Rolling on the floor with the cigarette burns walked in

I'll miss the crush and I'm home again

Stepping through the door with the night in store

Whiling just an hour away

Step into the sky in the star bright

Feeling it's a brighter day

You and I should ride the coast

And wind up in our favourite coats just miles away

Roll a number, write another song

Like Jimmy heard the day he caught the train

Oh oh la la

Oh oh la la

Oh oh la la

Oh oh la la

You and I should ride the tracks

And find ourselves just wading through tomorrow

You and I, when we're coming down

We're only getting back

And you know I feel no sorrow

Oh oh la la

Oh oh la la

Oh oh la la

Oh oh la la

When you find that things are getting wild

Don't you want days like these?

When you find that things are getting wild

Don't you want days like these?

When you find that things are getting wild

Don't you need days like these?

When you find that things are getting wild

Don't you want days like these?

Oh oh la la

Oh oh la la
