Anouk - Tom Waits lyrics

Music & lyrics: A. Teeuwe / B. van Veen

I was dreaming last night

A figment of my brain

On the downtown train

And we had nowhere to go

So we got off to take a walk

In the pouring rain

You said you rode it once

And you would ride it again

Please take me with you

Tom waits for the morning train

To take us away

Me and Mr. Tom Waits

Can't wait no more

I'm wrapped around your finger

Two fingers on my lips

No need to speak

Cause it's all in our eyes

When they turned out the lights

They gave us one for the road

We headed for the tracks

And never looked back

This could never be real

Tom waits for the morning train

To take us away

Me and Mr. Tom Waits

Can't wait no more

Can't wait no more

On the downtown train
