lyrics

THE LAST TRAIN FROM BALTIMORE
The train pulls out the station
And I leave the platform once more
My name is Thomas Wilson
I use to drive these trains from Baltimore
And I sit and I stare and I wonder
If on that fateful night
I could have done something more
Young kids playing on a railway line
That’s what young kids do I was told

Don’t pull away from me
Hold me as I sleep
As that moment plays itself out once more
Why did it have to be?
The hand that fate dealt me
The guy who drove the last train
From Baltimore

Trampled by those memories
Like water gushing from a river strong
Papers asked if I fell asleep
A good story is a good story
Who cares if it’s wrong?

Don’t pull away from me
Hold me as I sleep
As that moment plays itself out once more
Why did it have to be?
The hand that fate dealt me
The guy who drove the last train
From Baltimore
