YAY.  This is a really nice little song, and I'm especially a fan of the bridge.  I am fascinated by the Zephyr.  SJ and I once talked about naming a long distance musical project after it.  If you two are really planning a trip on it, you'll have to tell me all about it!

We'll Take a Train Ride mp3

File:Train.jpg
California Zephyr

Lyrics

Past and future sum
One hundred eighty one
Of four AMs and mornings spent in front of classroom hum

Counting down the days
It seems so long to wait
But June will soon be soon and then we’ll both be on our way

We’ll take a train ride through Nevada
We’ll take a train ride up the coast
We’ll take a train ride through Montana
We’ll take a round-trip journey to home

In a sleeping car built big enough for two
With a laptop and an old guitar and one hell of a view

We’ll take a train ride through the Rockies
We’ll take a train ride up the coast
We’ll take a train ride through Chicago
We’ll take a round-trip journey to home

We’ll return a little bit older
And perhaps in need of a bath
Holding a new store of memories
And smiling we’re glad to be back
