Ghost train - live at chelsea studios, new york/1997 Counting Crows

I took the cannonball down to the ocean
Across the desert from sea to shining sea
I rode a ladder that climbs across the nation
Fifty million feet of earth between the buried and me
How do you do? she said, hey, how do you do?

She buys a ticket 'cause it's cold where she comes from
She climbs aboard because she's scared of getting older in the snow
Love is a ghost train rumbling through the darkness
Hold on to me darling, I've got nowhere else to go
How do you do? she said, hey, how do you do? hey, yeah

I took the cannonball down to the ocean
Watched the diesel disappear beneath the tumbling waves
Love is a ghost train howling on the radio
Remember everything she said, when only memory remains
How do you do? she said, hey, how do you do?
Hey how do you do? she said, hey, how do you do?
