Gerry Rafferty - City to City lyrics

Now the night train is waitin' to take me away

And I'm still feelin' guilty cause you're wanting me to stay

Well I know, how I know, it's harder on you

But you said it yourself, there's nothing else we could do.

When the wheels start turnin', takin' me through the night

Out there in the darkness, there's a star shinin' bright

And it makes me feel better just to see it up there

I hope you're thinkin' about it, hope you know I still care.

So goodnight, yeah goodnight

Goodnight train is gonna carry me home

So goodnight, yeah goodnight

Goodnight train is gonna carry me home.

Now I know you've been waiting, but I'll be seeing you soon

Meanwhile I just lay here staring at the moon

And a light made of silver, through my window it creeps

And the train keeps on rollin', and it just rocks me to sleep.

So goodnight, yeah goodnight

Goodnight train is gonna carry me home

So goodnight, yeah goodnight

Goodnight train is gonna carry me home

So goodnight, yeah goodnight

Goodnight train is gonna carry me home.

So goodnight, yeah goodnight

Goodnight train is gonna carry me home.

Now from city to city, it's four hundred miles

And I'm bound to wake up every once in a while

And it's then that I call out to some higher power

And then I'll go back to sleep cause I'll be home in an hour.

So goodnight (goodnight), yeah goodnight (goodnight)

Goodnight train is gonna carry me home (goodnight)

So goodnight (goodnight), yeah goodnight (goodnight)

Goodnight train is gonna carry me home (goodnight)

So goodnight (goodnight), yeah goodnight (goodnight)

Goodnight train is gonna carry me home (goodnight)

So goodnight (goodnight), yeah goodnight (goodnight)

Goodnight train is gonna carry me home (goodnight)
