The Lawrence Experiment - Can't Sleep on Trains Lyrics

Well I've been rattlin' round
Can't sleep on trains
I'm just a devil on the run
Got you in my frame

I've got a story for you
A story that you can't resist
But I'll tell a different story
In the cold daylight

Some make a promise
To love and protect
Some make a promise
Make the ones they regret

I'll make a promise to you
A promise that you'll never hear
But you'll hear a different story
In the cold daylight

You can spend your life
Digging a hole to die
Or you can spend your life
Just try'na survive

I keep a secret from you
A secret that you'll never hear
Be on the midnight flyer gone
Before the cold daylight

They say the darkest hour
Before the light of the dawn
I say the darkest hour
Is when she knew she was wronged

She had the sweetest smile
The sweetest smile you'll ever see
But that made no difference to me
In the cold daylight

You can mistreat a woman
And have no regrets
But if you cheat a woman
You'd better beware

Suddenly the sweetest eyes
The sweetest eyes you'll ever see
They'll tell a different story
In the heat of the fight

She pulled out the dagger
Wiped the blood on her thigh
Ripped shirt, scratches
Her alibi

She hides a secret from you
A secret that you'll never hear
And she told a different story
In the cold daylight

I've been strapped in tight
The dead sleep well on trains
I've been strapped in tight
Got no blood in my veins

I'll make my way back home
Not the way I planned
I won't be back this way again
In the cold daylight
