"THE YELLOW TRAIN."
written by Susan Jane Kahon
This song I wrote about my Father's stories as a child.He used to make up the most outrageous little tales..to tell us as children.words and music by Susan Jane Kahon..VOCALS BY TANYA DENNIS
It was a long...long time ago
I sat on Daddy's Knee
We were waiting for the yellow train
He said would come for me


He had this little story
Of riches..joy and fame
That the yellow train would bring
And he'd softly speak my name


Oh Daddy was a fine man
We seldom were apart
He made my life worthwhile
And his stories filled my heart


I remember the days
When the softest summer rain
Would pour down from the heavens
And we'd wait ...for the yellow train


Daddy was a carpenter
He was a man of strength and pride
When he took sick that year
Well..it hurt me so I cried


One night I was softly sleeping
When I felt a gentle breeze
I awoke and I found a little box
With a precious set of keys


I opened it so slowly
And my heart..it wrenched with pain
For inside the handmade wooden box
Was a tiny yellow train


Oh Daddy was a fine man
We seldom were apart
He made my life worthwhile
And his stories filled my heart


I remember the days
When the softest summer rain
Would pour down from the heavens
And we'd wait..
For the yellow train


Daddy passed away that year..but his memory lives on
I'm still waiting for that yellow train
But now it's with my daughter and my son


I remember the days
When the softest summer rain
Would Pour down from the heavens
And we'd wait..For the yellow train


I...C...U!!!!!
