Paul Simon - Train in the distance - remastered lyrics

Oo oo oo oo oo oo oo oo oo oo oo oo
Oo oo oo oo oo oo oo oo oo oo oo oo
Train in the distance

She was beautiful as southern skies
The night he met her
She was married to someone
He was doggedly determined that
He would get her he was old, he was young
From time to time, he'd tip his heart
But each time she withdrew
Everybody loves the sound of a
Train in the distance
Everybody thinks it's true
Everybody loves the sound of a
Train in the distance
Everybody thinks it's true oo oo oo oo oo oo
Train in the distance

Well, eventually
The boy and the girl get married
Sure enough, they have a son
And though they both were occupied
With the child she carried
Disagreements had begun
And in a while, they just fell apart
It wasn't hard to do
Everybody loves the sound of a
Train in the distance
Everybody thinks it's true
Everybody loves the sound of a
Train in the distance
Everybody thinks it's true

Two disappointed believers
Two people playing the game
Negotiations and love songs
Are often mistaken for one and the same

Well, now the man and the woman
They remain in contact
Let us say it's for the child
With disagreements about the meaning
Of a marriage contract
Conversations hard and wild
But from time to time
He just makes her laugh
She cooks a meal or two
Everybody loves the sound of a
Train in the distance
Everybody thinks it's true
Everybody loves the sound of a
Train in the distance
Everybody thinks it's true

What is the point of this story?
What information pertains?
The thought that life could be better
Is woven indelibly into our
Hearts and our brains
Like a train in the distance

Train in the, train in the oo oo oo oo oo oo
Oo oo oo oo oo oo
Whoo-whoo, whoo-whoo-whoo, whoo-whoo
Whoo-whoo, whoo-whoo-whoo, whoo-whoo
Whoo-whoo, whoo-whoo-whoo, whoo-whoo
Oo oo oo oo oo oo oo oo oo oo oo oo
Whoo-whoo, whoo-whoo-whoo, whoo-whoo
Whoo-whoo, whoo-whoo-whoo, whoo-whoo
Oo oo oo oo oo oo
