The Day We Caught the Train Lyrics

von Ocean Colour Scene

Never saw it as the start, more a change of heart
Rappin' on the windows, whistling down your chimney pots
Blowing off the dust in the room where I forgot
I made my plans in solid rock
Stepping through the door like a troubadour whiling just an hour away
Looking at the trees on the roadside feeling it's a holiday

You and I should ride the coast
And wind up on our favourite coats just miles away
Roll a number, write another sing like Jimmy heard
The day we caught the train, oh oh, na na na

Slipped another rum and coke, told a dirty joke
Walking like groucho sucking on a number ten
Rolling on the floor whne the cigarette burns walked in
I'll miss the crush and I'm home again
Stepping through the door with the night in store whiling just an hour away
Step into the sky with the starlight feeling it's a brighter day

You and I should ride the coast
And wind up on our favourite coats just miles away
Roll a number, write another sing like Jimmy heard
The day we caught the train, oh oh, na na na

You and I should ride the tracks
And find ourselves just wading through tomorrow
And you and I when we're coming down, we're only getting back
And you know I feel no sorrow

When you find that things are getting wild don't you need days like these
