Train Dreams Songtext

And a screaming locomotive train
Crazy dreams that go on for hours
And I can't begin to tell you how that feels

I've seen an elk with twisted antlers
Throw bright lightning 'cross the sky
Seen a man with a broken curse
Leap from a bridge and try to fly
And I've seen a boy who was a dog
Who became a man who forgot to die

Lately, I've been having dreams
Crazy dreams I can't explain
A woman standing in a field of flowers
And a screaming locomotive train
Crazy dreams that go on for hours
And I can't begin to tell you how that feels

The space that connects me where I am now
To the place where I'll one day be It's measured in the words that we speak
And the strange and wondrous things I've seen
It's measured in truth, it's measured in love
Measured in a tendency to pain
It's measured by a girl in a field of flowers
Screaming, "Dream of a midnight train"
This has been going on for years
Years and years and years and years
And years and years and years and years
I can't begin to tell you how that feels
