Waiting for the train to come I keep a'waiting for the train to come Dreamin' of the river and the rising sun I keep thinkin' 'bout the world to come My life packed up in a suitcase Old man staring from a doorway My hope tarries in the distance Love comes on the wheels of my deliverance
Oh-oh-oooh-oh where is the river unbroken Oh-oh-oooh-oh when will the whistle blow
Waitin' for the train to come I keep waitin' for the train to come Keepin' my appointment with the one who lives In the heart of everything that is
All night sleepin' in a station My god, it's hard not to be impatient I watch through the windows of forgiveness I cry but my word's my only witness
Oh-oh-oooh-oh where is the river unbroken Oh-oh-oooh-oh when will the whistle blow Oh-oh-oooh-oh where is the river unbroken Oh-oh-oooh-oh when will the whistle blow
Sometimes I feel I can't go on, I can't go on I get so tired, all passion's gone My heart, my head, my arms, my legs, I get so tired Without the strength to crawl away Then something breaks inside my soul, my strength is gone That spirit's finally taking hold My ears can hear, my eyes can see Those clouds of joy still cover me, cover me, cover me
Oh-oh-oooh-oh where is the river unbroken Oh-oh-oooh-oh when will the whistle blow Oh-oh-oooh-oh where is the river unbroken Oh-oh-oooh-oh when will the whistle blow
Oh-oh-oooh-oh where is, where is the river unbroken Oh-oh-oooh-oh when will the whistle blow
Fade:
Waiting for the train to come I keep waiting for the train to come...
