LONGEST TRAIN©2011 music/lyrics Jeff Powers

The sun went down over the railroad yard
Longest train I'd ever seen
I sat there for a long time
Watch it take away my dreams

Long gone
On the longest train I'd ever seen
Long gone
In a box car ride my dreams

Storm clouds gathered over the railroad yard
Thunder split the sky
Lightning struck twice in the same place
As I watched my lady ride

(and now she’s) Long gone
On the longest train I'd ever seen
Long gone
In a box car ride my dream

The sun went down over the railroad yard
On the longest train I'd ever seen
Thinkin' 'bout what we once had
And what was leaving me

And now she's long gone
On the longest train I'd ever seen
Long gone
In a box car ride my dream

I should have done this I should have done that
Got down on my knees
Now I'm standing at the railroad yard
Feeling like a bad dream

And now she's long gone
On the longest train I'd ever seen
Long gone
In a box car ride my dream

Long gone
Longest train I'd ever seen
Long gone
Box car carry way my dream
