Overnight Sleeper lyrics

Beneath the scattered light
Across bare hills of night
I dreamt a train just missed me
Another came in sight

I ran across the track
Then had to turn right back
A new one came straight at me
The next behind my back

Nowhere else to turn to
There`re walls on either side
Why must the embankment be so high
Beside myself with weakness
And faint from running wild
I could hear the sound of
Burning coal

They never seem to stop
But always get to smoke
Right out between two tunnels
I ran until I woke
