Shadows are falling and I'm running out of breath
Keep me in your heart for a while
If I leave you it doesn't mean I love you any less
Keep me in your heart for a while

When you get up in the morning and you see that crazy sun
Keep me in your heart for a while
There's a train leaving nightly called when all is said
and done
Keep me in your heart for a while

Sha la, la-la-la, la-la-li, li, lo
Keep me in your heart
keep me in your heart
Sha la, la-la-la, la-la-li, li, lo
Keep me in your heart for a while

Sometimes when you're doing simple things around the house
Maybe you'll think of me and smile
You know I'm tied to you like the buttons on your
blouse
Keep me in your heart for a while

Hold me in your thoughts, take me to your dreams
Touch me as I fall into view
When the winter comes keep the fires lit
And I will be right next to you

Engine driver's headed north to Pleasant Stream
Keep me in your heart for a while
These wheels keep turning but they're running out of
steam
Keep me in your heart for a while

Sha la, la-la-la, la-la-li, li, lo
Keep me in your heart
Keep me in your heart
Sha la, la-la-la, la-la-li, li, lo
Keep me in your heart for a while
