That's when you hear it coming That is when you hear the humming of the - Midnight train, here again Can't explain that midnight train, that midnight train Starlight Express, you must confess Are you real, yes or no? Starlight Express, answer me yes. I don't want you to go. Want you to take me away But bring me home before day-light And in the time between
Take me to everywhere But don't abandon me there Just want to say I-ve been. I believe in you completely Though I may be dreaming sweetly of the midnight train I can hear the train, here again Can't explain that midnight train, that midnight train Starlight Express, you must confess Are you real, yes or no? Starlight Express, answer me yes. I don't want you to go. Starlight Express, answer me yes. I don't want you to go. Starlight Express, you must confess, Are you real, yes or no? Starlight Express, answer me yes. I don't want you to go.
