Nico On The Night Train Lyrics - Street Gospels - Bedouin Soundclash

Thought I saw you Nico 

From the train's back window 

Late on last Thursday night 

Underneath the streetlight 

From the train it looked like 

You'd been there the whole night 

A whisper in the midnight 

That vanishes with daylight 

December's cold was calling 

And the snow was calling 

I thought as I rode back home 

Why was she all alone 

Nico, you know 

I'm not your man, I know that 

You can't take a stand 

On a midnight night train 

A couple weeks slipped us past 

On the train near Dundas 

She got on at that stop 

And as she sat down I thought 

A lot of friends were talking 

About Nico's late night walking 

Lately you've been acting funny 

Where'd you get that money? 

Nico, you know 

I'm not your man, I know that 

You can't take a stand 

On a midnight night train 

I moved a few seats over 

And as I brushed her shoulder 

She said, "don't I know you?" 

Yeah, we had friends in high school 

And as my stop got closer 

I turned my back towards her 

I don't know why I did that 

I wish I had told her that 

Nico, you know 

I'm not your man, I know that 

You can't take a stand 

On a midnight night train
