Midnight Train Still

The clock strikes two in the neon glow Nowhere to be, and nowhere to go The bartender’s wiping the counter down The last two souls in a sleeping town Ice clinking soft in a crystal glass Watching the hours so slowly pass I'm not waiting for a savior, no white knight Just killing time in the fading light Oh, the midnight train ain't running today And all of my troubles are here to stay But there’s a comfort in the quiet, a peace in the dark When you're guarding the embers of a broken heart You promised me Paris, you promised me Rome But you couldn't even promise to bring me home Now I’m wearing this dress like a suit of mail Riding the wind on a broken sail Oh, the midnight train ain't running today And all of my troubles are here to stay But there’s a comfort in the quiet, a peace in the dark When you're guarding the embers of a broken heart Just guarding the embers... Mmm, let it burn slow.
