Streetlamps pass by my windowpane As the wheels turn, so does the day I feel the weariness creep onto my brain My eyes watch the sky as it turns gray Back at the tracks I worked myself out Blisters tore into my soles and soul But I know when I reach the end of the route My life will soon again be caught in my control Because I know that my darling will be waiting there And we'll both have a life just for us She's gonna meet me, gonna kiss me from my head to my neck She's gonna see me, gonna greet me with a ***** peck And then we'll come home to our children at the time of the stars Somehow I will get there by trains, planes, or cars No matter how strong the wind may be No matter the deadliness of the sun I'll walk and wait throughout the barren country Just so I can be with my loved one Because I know she'll be standing, looking fair And she'll embrace me at the stop of the bus She's gonna meet me, gonna kiss me from my head to my neck She's gonna see me, gonna greet me with a ***** peck And then we'll come home to our children at the time of the stars Somehow I will get there by trains, planes, or cars The wind is growing colder now It's been hours since I've been indoors My toes are stiffer than I would allow I don't think they'll again touch my home's floors As hunger and sleep dominate my sides I see my sweetie still waiting alone The visions push me and become my guides Because my unfortunate days are agone She's gonna meet me, gonna kiss me from my head to my neck She's gonna see me, gonna greet me with a ***** peck And then we'll come home to our children at the time of the stars Somehow I will get there by trains, planes, or cars

Trains, Planes, or Cars
Streetlamps pass by my windowpane As the wheels turn, so does the day I feel the weariness creep onto my brain My eyes watch the sky as it turns gray Back at the tracks I worked myself out Blisters tore into my soles and soul But I know when I reach the end of the route My life will soon again be caught in my control Because I know that my darling will be waiting there And we'll both have a life just for us She's gonna meet me, gonna kiss me from my head to my neck She's gonna see me, gonna greet me with a ***** peck And then we'll come home to our children at the time of the stars Somehow I will get there by trains, planes, or cars No matter how strong the wind may be No matter the deadliness of the sun I'll walk and wait throughout the barren country Just so I can be with my loved one Because I know she'll be standing, looking fair And she'll embrace me at the stop of the bus She's gonna meet me, gonna kiss me from my head to my neck She's gonna see me, gonna greet me with a ***** peck And then we'll come home to our children at the time of the stars Somehow I will get there by trains, planes, or cars The wind is growing colder now It's been hours since I've been indoors My toes are stiffer than I would allow I don't think they'll again touch my home's floors As hunger and sleep dominate my sides I see my sweetie still waiting alone The visions push me and become my guides Because my unfortunate days are agone She's gonna meet me, gonna kiss me from my head to my neck She's gonna see me, gonna greet me with a ***** peck And then we'll come home to our children at the time of the stars Somehow I will get there by trains, planes, or cars
