Cave of Voices - Friendly Old Train (2024 Version) Lyrics

For a thousand years I've been alone
A lonely machine in a lonely home
I need a reason to still be alive
'Cause I wanna be happy until the day I die

My smile is sweet so don't be afraid
I just wanna have fun, so don't be lame
If you want I can take you far, far away
'Cause I'm a friendly old train

Ah
Ah

So come and take a ride with me
The faster I go, the further on you'll be
Until I derail and send you flying

Now I sleep in a bed of weeds
And I'm as sad as an old train can be
Come wake me up, come give me a ride
And I'll make you happy until the day you die

'Cause my smile is sweet on my friendly old face
And I wanna have fun, and that'll never change
And I wanna take you far, far away
Through the wild world and to your grave

So come and take a ride with me
The faster I go, the further on you'll be
Until I derail and send you flying
Come and take a ride with me
The faster I go, the further on you'll be
'Til the day we die
