Sometimes when I am lonely I get to thinking bout the places that I've been

I turn around in the same old direction once again I'm going home on a midnight train

When I left you was the middle of the winter

The ground was covered by a cold cold snow

My heart was young and I was searching but in vain I'm going home on a midnight train

Home is not just a place where you are living

Home means more when you've got no place to go

And when you're down and need someone to stand beside you

Turn around and go on home

When you're down and need someone...
