On the train (New Version for Petra)
Another demo song of mine - I wrote the music months ago and finally had the idea for the right words when I travelled to my family for Christmas. And probably you already guessed - I travelled by train.

Lyrics
He remembers his son and he begins to cry
they broke up long before and then time passed by
last week on the phone he made up with his son
and now he's goin to see him, their fight is done.
looks out in the dark and dries his tears
and thinks of those long and wasted years.
On the train you will see the life
whereever you go whereever you arrive
just look in their faces and you will see
people like you and people like me
every passenger is on his own trail
but they are all together allies on the rail.
Amy McDean joined us an hour ago
she's not the kind of girl to put on a show
Amy McDean just wanted to leave
she doesn't really have an aim to achieve.
her travelling companion is a worn out guitar
in Nashville maybe she'll become a star.
On the train you will see the life
whereever you go whereever you arrive
just look in their faces and you will see
people like you and people like me
every passenger is on his own trail
but they are all together allies on the rail.
The next one I meet is Father Thomas Lore
who doesn't want to be a priest anymore
he lost his faith, he doesn't know why
when he turns his eyes up he sees only sky
he smiles at me and then he turns away
I watch Thommy go and I begin to pray.
On the train you will see the life
whereever you go whereever you arrive
just look in their faces and you will see
people like you and people like me
every passenger is on his own trail
but they are all together allies on the rail.
The red cams churn,
the steel wheels turn,
smoke fills the sky
and the world's passing by,
sowrrows under steam
don't you know what I mean
the insight to gain
we are all on this train
On the train you will see the life
whereever you go whereever you arrive
just look in their faces and you will see
people like you and people like me
every passenger is on his own trail
but they are all together allies on the rail.
