I Heard the Trains Talk

I heard the trains talk
I'm going to whistle twice
I'll let the light shine bright
So that everybody on Rantakatu (Beach Rd) wake up
 
Then they'll continue their sleep
Only the jackdaws will rise into air
Knowing we'll hear of them
Sometime later
 
Two feeble whistles
Creaking, clattering
Nothing else to lose
But distance
 
Everybody continues their sleep
Only the jackdaws will rise into air
Knowing we'll hear of them
Sometime later
 
I hear the trains talk
It is time
There is no ticking sound
Nobody is getting on board
 
My old station
My shiny carriages
Belong someplace else
(Belong) under the stars
(Belong) on the rails
 
Nothing else to lose
But distance
