Outside, another yellow moon

Has punched a hole in the nighttime, yeah

I climb from the window and down to the streetAnd I′m shining like a new dime

Downtown trains are full with all those Brooklyn girls

They try so hard to break out of their little worlds

You wave your hand and they scatter like crows

They have nothing that'll ever capture your heart

They′re just thorns without the rose

Be careful of them in the dark

Oh, if I was the one

You chose to be your only one, only one

Can't you hear me now

Will I see you tonight

On a downtown train?

Well, every night is just the same

Don't leave me lonely now

I know your window and I know it′s late

I know your stairs and your doorway

I walk past your street and by your gate

I stand by the light of the four-way

You watch ′em all fall down

Baby, they all have heart attacks

They stay at the carnival

But they'll never win you back

Will I see you tonight

On a downtown train?

Where every night

Every night is just the same, baby

Will I see you tonight

On a downtown train?

All of my dreams just fall like rain

Oh baby, on a downtown train

Will I see you tonight

On a downtown train?

Where every night is just the same

Oh, baby

Will I see you tonight

On a downtown train?

All of my dreams just fall like rain

Baby, on a downtown train

Baby, on a downtown train

On a downtown train
