Terry O'Leary - Pa**ing Trains In Winter Rain lyrics

Adrift within a dismal night, While trudging down deserted track, Beyond the bend, a peering light, Illumed alone through vacant black. Such are the tricks that fate will feign, With pa**ing trains in winter rain. The darkling sky, sighed, dripping dew, Beguiling to the trek anew. In diamond dusk the demons came, There was no dread, there was no claim, But distant thoughts will entertain On pa**ing trains in winter rain. Through shadow's fog a form appeared, Which slowed its pace as though it feared, A lonesome, meek and wistful thing, A fallen bird with broken wing. Such are the shapes and weary strain Of pa**ing trains in winter rain. We paused a moment, side by side, And in each face a question lay. The answer which our eyes replied Was she and I had separate way, We had our courses to maintain Like pa**ing trains in winter rain. I often harken, reaching back, To hear the formless twisted track Muse "Few have loved though all have toyed Inside this vast and vacant void - The what and why? At heart, mundane! " We're pa**ing trains in winter rain...
