Misheard lyrics?

I was just looking at/ listening to a Youtube video of Styx's song Babe. I love this song but right near the beginning, I believed the lyrics posted on the video were incorrect. So, I checked the lyrics on about eight different lyrics sites and they all agreed with the vid I was watching and disagreed with me.       I then listened to (and watched) another video and sure enough, the lyrics on-screen seemed incorrect to me and were different from what my ears were telling me I was hearing. I must hear something different than what everyone else hears. What do you hear?

Do you hear "My train is going. I see it in your eyes--the love, the need, your tears."?

Or do you hear something else?

I'll post what I hear down below the two videos. The first one is the original recording; second is a live performance. The lyric starts at about :49 of the first vid and at about :44 in the second one.
















What I hear is "My train is going. I see it in your eyes--the love beneath your tears."

What do you think?

Misheard lyrics

Here is the best (and most astounding) example of misheard lyrics. You know how some songs have a few words that can be misconstrued to be something else? Like the ones in Hendrix's Purple Haze where "Scuse me while I kiss this guy" is really "Scuse me while I kiss the sky". Prepare to be amazed and to LOL. After you view the video, have a look at the "true" lyrics I've conveniently posted below. "True" is in quotes because I don't think anyone knows for sure what the real lyrics are. I'm sure there are errors in these lyrics, but they seem more reasonable than any others I've examined.





Yellow Ledbetter - Pearl Jam

Unsealed on a porch a letter sat.
Then you said, "I wanna leave it again."
Once I saw her on a beach of weathered sand. And on the sand I wanna leave it again. Yeah.
On a weekend I wanna wish it all away, yeah.
And they called and I said that "I want what I said" and then I call out again.
And the reason oughta' leave her calm, I know.
I said "I know what I waited not the box or the bag."

Ah yeah, can you see them out on the porch? Yeah, but they don't wave.
But I see them round the front way. Yeah.
And I know, and I know. I don't want to stay.
Make me cry...

I see... Ooh I don't know why there's something else.
I wanna drum it all away... [ ;-) ]
Oh, I said, "I don't, I don't know whether was the box or the bag."

Ah yeah, can you see them out on the porch? Yeah, but they don't wave.
But I see them round the front way. Yeah.
And I know, and I know. I don't wanna stay at all.
I don't wanna stay. Yeah.
I don't wanna stay. (x2)
I don't... Don't wanna, oh... Yeah. Ooh... Ohh...
