Leaving on the night train
Giving up the fight
Moving from the fast lane
Home tonight, yeah

Waiting at the station
Thinking of the past
Tricky situation
Goin' home at last

Getting right away from the heavy, heavy days
And the long, long nights
Never alone
Getting right away from the heavy, heavy days
And the long, long nights
Never alone
And I'm home

(Night after night) Just another story
(Time after time) Waiting for the call
(Fight after fight) Heading for the glory
Of rock'n'roll

(Pretty face) Naked and, I'm a-burning
(Round and round) Burning up inside
(Keepin' pace) Takin' all the money
Easy ride

Getting right away from the heavy, heavy days
And the long, long nights
Never alone
I'm getting right away from the heavy, heavy days
And the long, long nights
Never alone
And I'm home

No-one knows what I've been going through
Now, at last, I'm coming back to you
Tonight, tonight, tonight

Waiting on the night train
(Night after night) Leave it all behind
(Time after time) Worry 'bout the old frame
But never mind

Getting right away from the heavy, heavy days
And the long, long nights
Never alone
I'm getting right away from the heavy, heavy days
And the long, long nights
Never alone
And I'm home

No-one knows what I've been going through
Now, at last, I'm coming back to you
Tonight, tonight, tonight

Leaving on a night train....
Home tonight
