ZOE ON THE T TRAIN
words & music by Grayson Hugh

On the trail of a hundred T trains
going 'round this cold harbor town
as the October afternoon was falling
we met up and started talking in the crowd and as the feet were shuffling to the rail beat
we spoke of Georgia and mountains
secrets of wood and soft southern light
and ghosts in the fountains

I call your name
I call it out like a sweet refrain
I call your name
I remember the day I went riding
with Zoe on the T train

You reminded me of a cat
perched forward with your deep brown eyes
looking into mine as I looked back
in my shy mountain lion disguise
and when we walked out on the street I remember
you were so near to me and I felt the hush
all the people vanished and I want to feel that
cold October thrill again so much

I call your name
I call it out like a sweet refrain
I call your name
I remember the day I went riding
with Zoe on the T train

All those afternoon of the harvest moon
full of blue sky and bright yellow trees
in that college town of boulevards and bridges
with the cold wind blowing off the nearby seas
I captured you like a runaway fawn
you harbored me when I was ocean-tossed
I can't believe that I ever found you
I can't believe that you were ever lost

I call your name
I call it out like a sweet refrain
I call your name
It's been a while but I still feel the same And I call your name
I call it out in the snow and rain
I call your name
I remember the day I went riding
with Zoe on the T train
