On a train going east, she is fixing a feast of coke and chips and cheesebread
And she leans on the window, sees the sun go down in painted stains of grey and red
And by the light up aboveshe rifles her stuff and finds her favorite pen
And with the tracks and the ties and the moon on the rise she opens up a page and dreams again

A augmentedA man and a boy and a few books and toys are riding two cars down
And the boy wants to know why the sun has to go and if it ever falls and hits the ground
So with a book from the stack he climbs on his dad's lap and soon begins to fuss
But in the moon glow he goes fast asleep and missed his daddy whisper "goodnight mush"

And if life is a dance, a work of art, or just a dream
Then there's always the chance of getting lost then found in mystery

So when the train had passed they got down on the tracks and laughed at both their penniess
And there were prospects and plans and final exams but they spent that night in the lamplight holding hands
