Roy Acuff - Midnight Train Lyrics

The sunshine comes from lonesome valley

And all alone I must remain

While far away through lonesome vallay

Comes a dying cry of the midnight train



How many tears how many sorrow

How many hearts are died in pain

Whose love today is gone tomorrow

Carried away on that midnight train

[ fiddle - dobro ]

We shared our love in sweet surrender

With happy tears and hidden pain

For well we knew our dream was ending

And you must go on that midnight train



That heart burns low the song is dying

And only memories remain

The teardrops flow my heart keeps crying

When I hear the wail of the midnight train



How many tears how many sorrow...
