Journey of Melancholy: The Allure of a Train Sound
Lyrics
I used to hear that lonesome whistle
I used to hear a lonely train whistle.
But it never made me cry
The sound of the train never used to evoke sadness in me.
I'd place my pennies on the track when it rolled by
I would place my pennies on the train track as it passed.
A pocket full of memories of another place in time
I have a pocket full of memories from another time and place.
Wish I could go there right now
I wish I could revisit those memories right now.
