Calico Train Lyrics - The Crow - Steve Martin

When you said goodbye, I thought I would cry 

Or at least feel the dark of a deep shade of blue 

I would have to attend to a heart on the mend 

And would fight back memories of you. 

You affected my life, oh I cannot deny that 

You made believe that life's not for free. 

But anger and scorn are not what I live for 

So my darling I'll leave that to you. 

I sat one night, in the glow of firelight 

and I played all my favorite tunes you dislike. 

Some friends made a call, let's go casual; 

Tonight is the Calico Ball.

NEW SONG: Blink-182 - 'Happy Days' Lyrics 

Now I'm feeling alive with a man on each side 

with my heart in tow is the most apropos 

and each swing round the room lifts and spins off the gloom 

and every step takes me further from you. 

That night at the dance, after all our romance 

Made me feel like a woman in bloom. 

Romance it is true, it is useful for you 

But for me now my star is true. 

Then a man came to me, I said yes I am free 

And I undid the clasp of my gold ball and chain. 

I danced in his charms, was completely disarmed, 

Now I'm riding along on the Calico Train. 

Sorrow and strain, they can both long remain 

They can take you and leave you alone and insane. 

But freedom's in sight, if the road in the night 

Is lit by the light of the Calico Train.
