elo - train of gold lyrics

i saw her there from across the street, she was dressed in black
and when she moved she moved to a beat, like a cadillac
she rode a train, train train train, a train of gold

she was a woman of suspicious ways, never saw daylight
and in her room she sat and passed the days
and she'd creep out at night
she rode a train, train train train, a train of gold

chorus: train of gold, train of gold
it took me so long to find out i was wrong
now i wait for her in the night

looked through a window saw a velvet sky, a shade of green
a violin was playing soft and sweet, like it was a dream
she rode a train, train train train, a train of gold

train of gold, train of gold
it took me so long to find out i was wrong
now i wait for her in the night

train of gold, train of gold
i don't believe her, it just couldn't be her
i can't get it out of my mind
