"Timbuktu" lyrics

I'll be waiting for that train to Timbuktu
I'll be waiting for my chance to run from the truth
And as the wind blows and the rain gets hard on my skin
I find shelter from escaping this heart of sin

I'll travel through this lonely dark night
Searching for anything but the light
I'll close my eyes to the life I knew
Dreaming of anything but you

I've been thinking of the times when I was young and free
Standing steadily on my own two feet
And as the memories turn to dust and settle on the ground
I find comfort in forgetting this heart of mine

I'll travel through this lonely dark night
Searching for anything but the light
I'll close my eyes to the life I knew
Dreaming of anything but you
Dreaming of anything but you
