WAITIN ON THE TRAIN



                  My dear.

              I'm just sitting here.

                 I have no fear

             The train will appear

                It's really great.  

   It's I something don't hate.

              I wait at the gate.



                  I wait on the road.

               Street, neat

           The road, the street in

              the middle of the town

          in the middle of the plains, the prairie

     the farmland.

  understand

      

               The train whistle blows.

           Its coming, I know.

       The gates come down, the bells ring, my heart sings

      

           I watch as it does thunder by,

       A tear falls from my eye

        Its gone, as quick as night turns to dawn,.



      Until again

   Im waiting on the train

sounds like this train watching is a passtime. My friend Diane likes trains too. Me I can take them or leave them because I grew up around them in L.I. in childhood...
