Tie me down to the Caulfield line
you won't have to hold me down
just tie me down to the Caulfield line
'cause that train's gotta be stopped somehow
This ain't no time for waiting now
this ain't no time to pray
'cause the train that comes down the Caulfield line
once took the Romans away
tie me down
and strap the chords
and take my hand
yes tie me down
I feel the train in the cold rails now
morse code on my skin
my bones on stones, my eyes are closed
and I hear the call of the
Caulfield Line
One hand holds a photograph
the other holds a flame
and the cling and clang
of steel and love and wood and man
on the Caulfield Line
tie me down
and strap the chords
and take my hand
yes tie me down
Yes, tie me down to the Caulfield Line
you won't have to hold me down
just tie me down on the Caulfield Line
'cause that train's gotta be stopped someon
tie me down
tie me down
and strap the chords
yes tie me down
