Down by the beach road

Crawling through the undergrowth

Stand by the railing

And look along

Put your ear to the ground

Listen for a while

Till all the tracks start

Humming and buzzing

Then the roar comes

And it's louder than the drums

Cause it's tons and tons and tons

Of steel going faster



Now maybe i'm on the bridge

And near the very edge

And i'm waiting for the train

To pass under

It's got fifteen carriages

Each one saying what it is

This is bigger than anything

That'll ever go past you

It drowns out what you say

And it blows the dust away

And it makes it's own way







We can't stop it



This train will take you anywhere

This train will take you anywhere

You want to go



I'm on the border

Berlin to warsaw

I can't tell the things i saw

You'd see them anyway

It's the same where you go

Hanol to bangalore

From belize to bogato

You can ride on

Get on at the platform

Keep your eyes on the land

And see the colours all change

And the world all open



This train will take you anywhere

And you can see anything

You can sleep or you can imagine

This train will take you anywhere

You want to go
