Waitin' for the train to come

I keep a waitin' for the train to come

Dreaming of the river and the rising sun

I keep thinking bout the world to come



My life packed up in a suitcase old man strain from a doorway

My hope tarries in the distance

Love comes on the wheels of my delieverence

Oh where is the river unbroken oh when will the whistle blow



Waitin' for the train to come

I keep a waitin' for the train to come

Keeping my appointment with the one who lives

In the heart of everything that is



All night sleeping 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 where is the river unbroken oh when will the whistle blow

Oh where is the river unbroken 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 strenght to crawl away then something breaks inside my soul)

My strenght had gone

(That spirit finaly taking hold my ears can hear my eyes can see)

Those clouds of joy still cover me cover me cover me



Oh where is the river unbroken oh when will the whistle blow

Oh where is the river unbroken oh when will the whistle blow

Oh where is the river unbroken oh when will the whistle blow
