Night Train
Bouncing Souls Lyrics

Goodbye to me and you.
Farewell to myself and you, to the person I once was and the person I shared my life with.

Goodbye to the life we knew.
Farewell to the world we had created together, to the memories, the routines, the comfort of familiarity.

One last long embrace.
One final hug, a physical manifestation of our emotional bond, before we part ways.

Let go and walk on through.
Release our grasp on each other and move forward, accepting the inevitable change.

I'm leaving everything behind for a peace that I can't find.
Abandoning all that I know in the pursuit of inner tranquility, even though I'm unsure of where to find it.

The ghosts that roam this house
The remnants of past memories and emotions that linger in my old home.

Like winter air right through our souls.
Penetrating us to our very core, chilling us to the bone.

And it feels like dying.
The pain of letting go and moving on feels like a small death, a loss of a part of ourselves.

It just feels like time to go.
The decision to leave is instinctual, a feeling that we can't ignore any longer.

Goin' down south to dream another dream.
Headed to the southern United States to dream of a new life, a fresh start.

Maybe check out Memphis, Tennessee.
Considering a visit to Memphis as part of this journey, perhaps due to its cultural significance and musical influence.

Take the night train and an extra pair of jeans.
Taking the overnight train and packing lightly, preparing for a new adventure and a simpler life.

Can't think of anything else I really need.
Realizing that material possessions are not what truly matter, that the key to happiness lies elsewhere.

And all my experiences ride with me.
The memories and lessons I've learned throughout my life are a part of me, and will continue to shape me as I move forward.

This town is dead to me.
Feeling disconnected and disillusioned with the place I once called home.

And I can't stop chasing my dreams.
Driven by an unquenchable desire for personal fulfillment, no matter the cost or obstacle.

I love you more than anything,
Expressing a deep love and affection for another person, who I'm leaving behind to pursue my own path.

But what you want I could never be.
Acknowledging that I can't fulfill the other person's hopes and dreams, that we are simply not meant to be together.

But only alone can we both be free.
Realizing that true freedom and happiness can only be achieved on our own, without the constraints of a relationship holding us back.

Wipe the tears from your eyes.
Consoling the other person, encouraging them to be strong and move on from this chapter of their life.

Let go and walk on through.
Offering support and encouragement as we continue on our own individual journeys, never forgetting the love and connection we once shared.
