lyrics

Westbound Train
© Graceful Riot Music

I don’t want to shine for you
unless you’re real, unless you’re true
Don’t want to hear you say my name
If you’re just another clever, westbound train

I’ve worked the carnivals til midnight
I’ve known a gypsy or two
Been on my knees in the garden of redemption
Lie to me, I’ll lie to you

I don’t want to shine for you
If you think you’ve got something more important to do
Don’t want to hear you say my name
If you’re gonna trade your good intentions for fame

I’ve been from here to Madagascar
Been to Paris, been to Rome
Seen the seven wonders of the world
and I can tell you, where you lay your head?
That ain’t a home.

Take my hand and let’s go dancing
Unleash the heart, the soul, the bones
This precious world is for romancing
No need to walk this road alone

I don’t want to shine for you
unless you’re real, unless you’re true
Don’t want to hear you say my name
If you’re just another clever, westbound train

I’ve worked the carnivals til midnight
I’ve known a gypsy or two
Been on my knees in the garden of redemption
Lie to me, I’ll lie to you
Don’t you lie to me and I won’t lie to you
