Midnight Train Blues

[Verse] Rolling down the dusty road, moonlight in my eyes, Got a bottle by my side, the truth I can't disguise, Steel rails sing a lonesome tune, echoing my pain, Every mile I ride away, trying to break these chains. [Chorus] On the midnight train, I'm running, From the shadows, I can't hide, Got the blues deep in my soul, And a fire that won't die. [Verse 2] Left my heart back in Memphis, where the river meets the sky, She said she'd always love me, but those words turned to lies, Now the rhythm of the wheels, they keep me company, In the dark, I find my solace, in the blues, I'm free. [Chorus] On the midnight train, I'm running, From the shadows, I can't hide, Got the blues deep in my soul, And a fire that won't die. [Verse 3] Every town I roll through, a story left behind, Broken dreams and shattered hearts, they're etched into my mind, But the music in my veins, it keeps me moving on, In the night, I find redemption, with every bluesy song. [Bridge] The whistle cries a mournful tune, the wind it howls my name, In the darkness, I find comfort, in the sorrow, no shame, Guitar strings hum like angels, in a smoky room, With every chord, I chase away the gloom. [Verse 4] One day I'll find a resting place, where the hurt don't linger on, But until then, I'll keep on riding, to the breaking dawn, Midnight train keeps rolling, through the heartache and the pain, In the shadows, I'll keep searching, for a love that heals again. [Chorus] On the midnight train, I'm running, From the shadows, I can't hide, Got the blues deep in my soul, And a fire that won't die. [Outro] Midnight train, keep rolling on, take me where I need to be, Through the dark and endless night, let the blues set me free.
