The Train
The Souls Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
To see you in my eyes
Lost the love I had so dear
And I know how blue is the sky
Everyday goodbye
I wonder
How much he thinks of meI can tell by the he sat
Is where I set him free
I hear the train
Coming down the tracks
When I hit that clickery clack
I think that got some laughs
Thinking that I'm lonely
When I see him face to face
I better slow down
My minds about to race
Only time will tell
If I will
Be happier than him
Stand out faces in the crowd
Bring back thoughts of him and me
I hear the train
Coming down the tracks
When I hit that clickery clack
I think that got some laughs
Thinking that I'm lonely
When I see him face to face
I better slow down
My minds about to race
The song "The Train" by The Souls talks about leaving everything behind and moving on for a peace that cannot be found in the place one is currently in. It starts with bidding goodbye to everything that was familiar- life, love, and embracing the journey into the unknown. The pain of leaving everything behind is palpable as described by "The ghosts that roam this house/Like winter air right through our souls", conveying how the past is haunting and feeling like dying is the only option left.
Line by Line Meaning
Goodbye to me and you.
We are saying farewell to both ourselves and each other
Goodbye to the life we knew.
We are bidding farewell to the life we had together
One last long embrace.
We hold each other tight for the final time
Let go and walk on through.
We release each other and move forward
I'm leaving everything behind for a peace that I can't find.
I am abandoning all that I have for something that still eludes me
The ghosts that roam this house
Like winter air right through our souls.
The memories that haunt this place deeply affect and wound us
And it feels like dying.
This experience is akin to dying
It just feels like time to go.
It is simply the right moment for us to leave
Goin' down south to dream another dream.
I'm headed down south to envision a new dream
Maybe check out Memphis, Tennessee.
I might explore Memphis, Tennessee
Take the night train and an extra pair of jeans.
I'll take the night train along with an extra set of clothes
Can't think of anything else I really need.
I can't think of anything else that's necessary for the journey
And all my experiences ride with me.
Everything that has occurred in my life travels with me
This town is dead to me.
This locality has lost its significance to me
And I can't stop chasing my dreams.
I can't desist from pursuing my aspirations
I love you more than anything,
But what you want I could never be.
I cherish and value you above all else, but your desires are incompatible with who I am
I love you more than anything,
But only alone can we both be free.
I adore you more than anything, but only independence can grant us both freedom
Wipe the tears from your eyes.
Dry your tears
Let go and walk on through.
Release me and continue moving forward
