In the still of night, I can hear that sound,
A train whistle moanin' as it rolls through this town.
Midnight shadow creepin', whisperin' low,
With every gust of wind, it tells me where to go.
Empty arms reachin' for the warmth of your smile,
But the blue horizon stretches on for miles.
I’m searchin’ for a sign, a glimpse of your face,
In the heart of the darkness, I'm lost in this space.
Southern breeze, carry me back to your door,
Where the sweet scent of jasmine don't hang anymore.
Every heartbeat echoes just like that train,
Promisin' me love while it’s givin' me pain.
Guitar strings cryin', they know my despair,
Each note like a raindrop falls heavy in the air.
I’m a lone traveler, caught in a dream,
Wanderin' this road where nothing's as it seems.
Midnight shadows dance, play tricks on my mind,
A flicker of your laughter, the love we left behind.
Blue horizon calls me, but all I see is gray,
I’m walkin’ this empty path, tryin' to find my way.
Southern breeze, carry me back to where you are,
To the glow in your eyes, and the light of the stars.
But the train keeps a-rollin', never lookin' back,
And I’m left with the memories slowly turnin’ to black.
So I’ll stand on this corner 'til the night turns to day,
With a heart full of hope, and a song to say.
In the quiet of the night, I’ll carry this tune,
Until I find my way back, 'neath the heart of the moon.
One day I'll find solace beneath that blue sky,
'Til then I’ll keep singin', with a tear and a sigh.
In the southern breeze I will finally roam,
But for now, I am here, with my broken heart, alone.
