Timbuktu Lyrics

Holly Macve Timbuktu

[Verse 1]
I'll be waiting for that train to Timbuktu
I'll be waiting for my chance to run from the truth
And as the wind blows and the rain gets hard on my skin
I find shelter from escaping this heart of sin

[Chorus]
I'll travel through this lonely dark night
Searching for anything but the light
I'll close my eyes to the life I knew
Dreaming of anything but you

[Verse 2]
I've been thinking of the times when I was young and free
Standing steadily on my own two feet
And as the memories turn to dust and settle on the ground
I find comfort in forgetting this heart of mine

[Chorus]
I'll travel through this lonely dark night
Searching for anything but the light
I'll close my eyes to the life I knew
Dreaming of anything but you
Dreaming of anything but you
