Lyr Req: Fast Movin' Train (Dave Loggins)

I know I am over the line in asking, but I will ask anyway. I am looking for a C&W song from the late 1990's. I have verses, but no chorus and I do not know the group that performed it. If anyone has any information, I will be much obliged. This song has entered my head and will not go away.

I knew she had a long line of lovers,
Mostly the gambling king.
I didn't want to be like the others,
And get left behind.
I heard about her bad reputation,
How she had a heart of stone.
How she'd give a man a moment of pleasure,
To get what she wants.


I had a weakness for her kind of woman,
That I could never deny.
I knew I would never see it coming,
'Til I was lost in her eyes.
The more I tried to keep her at a distance,
The more I became aware.
She was breaking down my resistance,
'Til I no long cared.

I remember only that there was a killer chorus, but I remember nothing else about the chorus.

I had a weakness for her kind of woman, I could never deny.
I knew I would never see it coming until I was lost in her eyes.
The more I tried to keep her at a distance, the more I became aware
She was breaking down my resistance till I no longer cared.

Tonight I saw the red, red rose in a yellow moon,
Shining on a silhouette lying in the shadows of my bedroom.
I knew it when we made love and I couldn't quit calling her name,
And I've been hit by another fast movin' train.
I've been hit by another fast movin' train.

I wondered as I lay there and held her, why can't this be real?
Why the fear wouldn't let me tell her how could she make me feel.
I doubt it if she would even be around when the moment comes.
I waited till she fell asleep to whisper, "Baby, look what you've done."

Tonight I saw the red, red rose in a yellow moon,
Shining on a silhouette lying in the shadows of my bedroom.
I knew it when we made love and I couldn't quit calling her name,
And I've been hit by another fast movin' train.

Tonight I saw the red, red rose in a yellow moon,
Shining on a silhouette lying in the shadows of my bedroom.
I knew it when we made love and I couldn't quit calling her name,
And I've been hit by another fast movin' train.
I've been hit by another fast movin' train.

Thanks Jeri and Marion! This why I love this site. Howdy, Janie. I haven't really been gone, just not as active. Thanks, again.
