Downtown Train Lyrics - Bob Seger

Outside another yellow moon 

Punched a hole in the nighttime, yes 

I climb through the window and down the street 

Shining like a new dime 

The downtown trains are full with all those Brooklyn girls 

They try so hard to break out of their little worlds 

You wave your hand and they scatter like crows 

They have nothing that will ever capture your heart 

They're just thorns without the rose 

Be careful of them in the dark 

Oh if I was the one 

You chose to be your only one 

Oh baby can't you hear me now

Will I see you tonight 

On a downtown train 

Every night is just the same 

You leave me lonely now 

I know your window and I know it's late 

I know your stairs and your doorway 

I walk down your street and past your gate 

I stand by the light at the four way 

You watch them as they fall 

They all have heart attacks 

They stay at the carnival 

But they'll never win you back

Will I see you tonight on a downtown train 

Where every night is just the same you leave me lonely 

Will I see you tonight on a downtown train 

All of my dreams just fall like rain 

All upon a downtown train
