Last Train To Homeland (feat. Yuriy Gurzhy)

from ARIGATO AMIGO by BalkanBeats SoundSystem

about

This airy track depicts a sentimental train journey back home, from Germany to Ukraine, in the delightful company of Yuriy Gurzhy. The song's beat reminds that of slow trains, moved by the nostalgia of violin melody.

lyrics

"LAST TRAIN TO HOMELAND"
(Lyrics by Yuriy Gurzhy ⎜Berlin 2017)

Here's a broken suitcase and a 3€ bag
Train‘s leaving in an hour, I still have to pack
Time to concentrate before it's too late
I don‘t know when I‘m coming back
And here's the list of the things I'd need
Three pages long, still not complete
Have a look - chocolates, records and books
I hope I bought gifts for everyone I'll meet

[last train, last train] last train to Kharkiv on a hot summer day
[last train, last train] platform 3, at 10:28
[last train, last train] compartment 5, 36 hours to go
[last train, last train] this time i gonna take it slow

When I get on a train, I turn off my brain
Put on my headphones, let the music play
It's a long way from Berlin to Ukraine
One hour passed, 35 remain
I hear a techno beat when the wheels are rolling
Look out the window, wave bye bye to Berlin
I'm watching a movie, turning off my phone,
A long forgotten feeling to be alone

[last train, last train] Remember how I used to get drunk on this train
[last train, last train] a mix of warm beer, schnaps and champagne
[last train, last train] The air is hot you can chew it like bubble gum
[last train, last train] Kharkov, here I come
