Last Train Home
Music by Pat Metheny
Words by Dave Olsen


Now the day is just about done
Don't see the end of what I've begun
My thoughts are full of former dreams
It seems like years have flown away
And still I'm waiting for
The last train home

Traveled over countless roads
And never stopped to lighten my load
The truth is always further on
Much further on inside myself
And still I'm waiting for
The last train home

Far off, the distant sound
A sound so familiar
It echoes through my soul
Calling me away

In my dream I am aboard that train
I am speeding back towards home again
The road I took is not yet through
I wish I knew where it will end
And still I'm waiting for
The last train home

And still I'm waiting for the last train home
