about

A song for my brother who I lost a few years ago. About the precious nature of time and the realisation that the train is always there when it's time, always on the line.

lyrics

The train came down; rolling down the track
The train came down to take my brother back
It was right on time…
All our tears and prayers couldn’t slow it down
It was right on time…

The Rolling Stones piled in; my brother got on-board
He waved and grinned as Keith Richards played a chord
It was right on time…
All our tears and prayers couldn’t slow it down
It was right on time…
Now I know how precious time is
Ooh, ooh, ooh...

And all the Saints were there; the football squad old
The fans all cheered Micky Channon’s finest goal
It was right on time…
All our tears and prayers couldn’t slow it down
It was right on time…
All our tears and prayers

He said ‘I don’t have a religious bone in my body but I believe in love’
He said ‘I don’t have a religious bone in my body but I believe in love’

The train came down; rolling down that track
The train came down to take my brother back
It was right on time…
All our tears and prayers couldn’t slow it down
It was right on time…
All our tears and prayers couldn’t slow it down
It was right on time…
Now I know how precious time is
Ooh, ooh, ooh..............
Now I know this train is travelling
Always on the line

Shy Face Troubadour is a fresh project platform for my songs. Previous releases have been under my name Tony Willé (not the Dutch country artist of the same name).I am a troubadour, a little shy, but paradoxically, never more at home than playing an intimate venue where I can sneak a peek at your faces. ... more
