Lyrics

It's late and I can't sleep
I've made promises that I can't keep
Couple storms and broken bones
Has a kingdom, but he's got no home
Last night is still ringing in my head
Like that lonesome whistle in the rain
Lord, I'm a fool for a lonesome train
Woah, I'm a fool for a lonesome train
The lifetimes we've left behind were strangers
Promises and lies both have their dangers
Now I just can't be wrong enough
And I can't hide for long enough
So far away, but I still feel your pain
Lord, I'm a fool for a lonesome train
Lord, I'm a fool for a lonesome train
I try to say goodbye, but I never got your name
Woah, I'm a fool for a lonesome train
Lord, I'm a fool for a lonesome train
I'm your fool for a lonesome train
I know it sounds crazy, but I'm painfully sane
Woah, I'm your fool for a lonesome
Oh a lonesome, lonesome train
