Far Off Train
Style: Accordion cradle

[Verse 1]
Somewhere a train is rolling on beyond the hill tonight
its window humming softly as it fades into the dark
you don't need to listen, you can let the sound drift by
for nothing in this whole wide world can leave its gentle mark

[Pre-chorus]
The rattle far away is just the night breathing slow
it carries on past windows while you're warm here in your bed
and every sound outside is only saying

[Chorus]
Harrison, my Harrison, the dark is soft and kind
close your eyes and rest now, leave the whole wide world behind
nothing out there needs you, nothing calls you from your sleep
Harrison, my Harrison, it's you that I will keep

[Verse 2]
The metal windows rattle gently as the train rolls through
but here the walls are quiet and the blankets hold you tight
you are the calm at centre while the distant world moves on
and you can drift off knowing you are safe from any night

[Bridge]
Let every far off sound become a hush against your ear
there's nothing you must carry, there is nothing you should fear

[Chorus]
Harrison, my Harrison, the dark is soft and kind
close your eyes and rest now, leave the whole wide world behind
nothing out there needs you, nothing calls you from your sleep
Harrison, my Harrison, it's you that I will keep

[Outro]
Far off now the train has gone to wherever trains must go
and you are here beside me, sleeping soft and safe and slow
