Beggar’s blues 
ENight train, silver moon, you Dask me why, I'm Eflying
To float on ashen wings to choke on dust and feather
I Dlearned you are a Eliar, it's Dright we should preEtend
And Dlie with one anEother, it's Dright we should be Etwins
For DI have loved no Eother
ELook for me baby, well DI'm draggin' Alonliness and it's ten Emiles long
EI thought I heard you scream baby in the Dwheels of a train that Acrawls when I Edon't wanna go
Cause you forDget me when I'm Agone, whEoa
Look for me baby, whenever ice is glistening upon the glass
D'ya ever find your dream baby, well God knows I never hear mine close enough
I watched 'em slip away like this, whoa
I've been from Aone end of this Dstreet to the other, now AI want the gifts ya promised me lover
Look for me baby, crow fly by with sister and brother, deadly as a kiss, a sin to one another
Look for me baby, well I'm draggin' lonliness and it's ten miles long
I thought I heard you scream baby, in the wheels of a train that crawls and I don't wanna go
Cause you forget me when I'm gone, whoa
Night train, silver moon, you ask me why am I flyin'
To float on ashen wings to choke on dust and feather
My dreams will go no further, won't calm my violent river
Oh guardian of peace, let the beggar walk in the winter
Look for me baby
Look for me baby
Look for me baby
Look for me baby
that's all

I learned you are a liar, it's right we should pretend

And lie with one another, it's right we should be twins

I thought I heard you scream baby, in the wheels of a train that crawls and I don't wanna go

Cause you forget me when I'm gone, whoa

Night train, silver moon, you ask me why am I flyin'

To float on ashen wings to choke on dust and feather

My dreams will go no further, won't calm my violent river

Oh guardian of peace, let the beggar walk in the winter

Look for me baby
