Lyrics

standing in the shadow of the verrazano bridge
hypnotized by the lights dancing on the tide
i’ll carry the weight back home, but i won’t sleep tonight
the streets are dark, the dogs are quiet, and everyone’s safe inside

and i’m the last train to brooklyn, i’m the end of the line
my tracks are worn, my signs are broken, and i don’t run on time
and if i get to where i’m going i hope you’ll let me stay
when it’s one more ride and one more stop before i fade away

coney island dreams flash behind my eyes
as the carousel spins round and round, brass rings on every side
let me know what time you’re going and i’ll meet you there
a ghost town lay forgotten buried in the sand

and i’m the last train to brooklyn, i’m the end of the line
my tracks are worn, my signs are broken, and i don’t run on time
and if i get to where i’m going i hope you’ll let me stay
when it’s one more ride and one more stop before i fade away
when it’s one more ride and one more stop before i fade away
