Runaway Train
Call you up in the middle of the night Like a firefly without a
light You were there like a blowtorch burning I was a key that could use a
little turning
So tired that I couldn't even sleep So many secrets I
couldn't keep I promised myself I wouldn't weep One more promise I
couldn't keep
It seems no one can help me now, I'm in too deep;
there's no way out This time I have really led myself astray
Runaway
train, never going back Wrong way on a one-way track Seems like I should
be getting somewhere Somehow I'm neither here nor there
Can you help
me remember how to smile? Make it somehow all seem worthwhile How on earth
did I get so jaded? Life's mystery seems so faded
I can go where no
one else can go I know what no one else knows
Here I am just
a-drownin' in the rain With a ticket for a runaway train
And
everything seems cut and dried, Day and night, earth and sky, Somehow I
just don't believe it
Runaway train, never going back Wrong way on a
one-way track Seems like I should be getting somewhere Somehow I'm neither
here nor there
Bought a ticket for a runaway train Like a madman
laughing at the rain A little out of touch, a little insane It's just
easier than dealing with the pain
Runaway train, never going
back Wrong way on a one-way track Seems like I should be getting
somewhere Somehow I'm neither here nor there
Runaway train, never
coming back Runaway train, tearing up the track Runaway train, burning in
my veins I run away but it always seems the same
