Lyrics
Verse 1
Train whistle calls me through the night,
Carrying sorrow in its light.
Every mile reminds me of you,
Every whistle brings the truth.
Verse 2
Rails hum stories of what’s gone wrong,
I’ve been listening all along.
I keep moving, but I’m still here,
Hearing your voice in every gear.
Chorus
Slow train blues,
Rolling past my heart.
Every station, every stop,
Takes a part.
I loved you deep, I loved you true,
Slow train blues… rolling through.
Bridge
If tracks could heal, I’d step aboard,
But the past keeps steering toward.
Final Chorus
Slow train blues,
Can’t slow down.
Every mile, every tear,
Paints this town.
Outro
Slow train blues…
