Platform blues

from I dig for gold by a Singer of Songs

/

lyrics

I’ve been waiting for this train of yours
I’ve been waiting all night long
I’ve been riding on this wave of hope
I’ve been riding for you to come
Now I’m a shadow in the sun
And the wind ‘s got awfully strong

And I holler until I go dumb
And I feel you until I go numb

I’ve been waiting for this train of yours
I’ve been waiting all day long
I’ve been standing on the same old stone
I’ve been standing for too long
Now my legs are so strong
To carry you when you come along

And I holler until I go dumb
And I feel you until I go numb

And when I hear a whistle blow
My ears twitch like a dog’s
I feel people passing by
But no-one seems to fall into my arms

I’ll be waiting for this train of yours
I’ll be waiting my whole life long
I’ll be riding on this wave of hope
I’ll be riding for you to come
Until the shadows are all gone
And the wind brings joy for none

about

a Singer of Songs Barcelona

I sing songs in the bathroom. In packed and empty venues. In gardens, sheds and churches. Once in a weird Finnish gym and also in the oldest house in Switzerland. On a boat and in a bus and in a horse farm. In noisy Italian bars and spookily silent Belgian rooms. On my own and with people.
I sing songs and if you want, you can listen.
