Starlight Express

When your goodnights have been said

And you are lying in bed

With the covers pulled up tight

And though you count every sheep

You get the feeling that sleep

Is gonna stay away tonight

That's when you hear it coming

That's when you hear the humming

Of the midnight train

Here again

Can't explain that midnight train

That midnight train

Starlight express, you must confess

Are you real? Yes or no?

Starlight express, answer me yes

I don't want you to go

Want you to take me away

But bring me back before daylight

And in the time between

Take me to everywhere

But don't abandon me there

Just want to say I've been

I believe in you completely

Though you may be dreaming sweetly

I can hear the train

Here again

Can't explain that midnight train

That midnight train

Starlight express, you must confess

Are you real? Yes, or no?

Starlight express, answer me yes

I don't want you to go

Starlight express, answer me yes

I don't want you to go

Starlight express, you must confess

Are you real? Yes, or no?

Starlight express, answer me yes

I don't want you to go

Starlight express, you must confess

Are you real? Yes, or no?

Starlight express, answer me yes

I don't want you to go
