Tren(es) en vano

Compartimento de tren (Edward Hooper, 1938)

Los trenes no pasan en vano, dispones de varias opciones:
a) Tirarte a la vía.
b) Dejarlos y verlos pasar mientras rumias.
c) Subir y ya te apearás en una estación si puedes.
d) Subir y que te bajen.
....

¡Señores al tren!

Annie Lennox

The Clash - "Train in Vain (Stand by me)"
 (Versión Estudio): London Calling (1979) ----> (aquí)

(...)
Say you stand by your man
Tell me something I don't understand
You said you love me and that's a fact
Then you left me, said you felt trapped

Well some things you can explain away
But my heartache's in me till this day

[Chorus]
Did you stand by me
No, not at all
Did you stand by me
No way

All the times
When we were close
I'll remember these things the most
I see all my dreams come tumbling down
I won't be happy without you around

So all alone I keep the wolves at bay
There is only one thing that I can say

[Chorus]

You must explain why this must be
Did you lie when you spoke to me

Did you stand by me
No, not at all

Now I got a job
But it don't pay
I need new clothes
I need somewhere to stay
But without all these things I can do
But without your love I won't make it through

But you don't understand my point of view
I suppose there's nothing I can do

[Chorus]

You must explain why this must be
Did you lie when you spoke to me?

Did you stand by me
Did you stand by me
No, not at all
Did you stand by me
No way
Did you stand by me
No, not at all
Did you stand by me
No way
