Down around the corner
I saw a long train running
I watched them disappear
Just like Miss Lucy disappeared
From my life forever
I lost my Lucy and her love
Like the fast moving train
She departed forever
Now I am living without her love
I wonder where she is now
Is she thinking about me?
Has she found love and happiness?
Or else she misses me
I don’t know
The Illinois Central is empty
Like my empty aching heart
I am still looking for Miss Lucy
Who was a part of my life
I see the long train running
Its wheels go 'round and 'round
Like the train’s wheels
My thoughts too go 'round and 'round
I am Thinking about Miss Lucy
Day and night
Living without her love
Truly it is a heartbreaking
Where would Lucy be now?
If she stayed with me
Like the long train running
She fastly moved from my life
Leaving emptiness in my heart

DeleteFor some reason I love that song. I love train in additions to planes and cars. I am very sentimental about them. I love the sound of a train, tunnels, the rumble and most of all the personality of a train. I feel some emptiness when I see a train leave a station, a plane takes off...
