Night Train To Lorca Lyrics - Pogues

Across the dark and dusty plain 

Where scars of old dry rivers run 

Night unfolds, a coal black shroud 

Across the hard and stony ground 

 

Distant stars shining bright 

In the cavern of the night 

All is still and silence screams 

To the thunder of the Lorca train 

 

Flaming steal swift as wind 

Wires hum the rails ring 

Smokestack burning fiery sparks 

Rise up to the stars 

 

Towns asleep by empty roads 

Churches rise from crooked roofs 

Cloaked in darkness nothing stirs 

Grow smaller darker disappear 

 

See the moon so still and cold 

A million stars that shed no warmth 

Your nightmares all come out to play 

In the silver light 

 

Wait for sunrise in the east 

Long shadows crawl across the plain 

The ghosts of night will disappear 

And lay your fears to rest 

 

Steam hissed up, the hot coals glowed 

The furnace blazed, the wheels they rolled 

On tracks of iron, straight and cold 

The silver moonlight danced 

 

The flames are in the fireman's eye 

Orange in the engines glow 

Gleaming pistons whirling cranks 

Wait for dawn the rooster's crow 

 

See the moon so still and cold 

A million stars that shed no warmth 

Your nightmares all come out to play 

In the silver light 

 

Wait for sunrise in the east 

Long shadows crawl across the plain 

The ghosts of night will disappear 

And lay your fears to rest 

 

See the moon so still and cold 

A million stars that shed no warmth 

Your nightmares all come out to play 

In the silver light 

 

Wait for sunrise in the east 

Long shadows crawl across the plain 

The ghosts of night will disappear 

And lay your fears to rest
