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
|
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 lead 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 mysteries seem so faded
|
I can go where no one else can go
|
I know what no one else knows
|
Here I am, just drowning in the rain
|
With a ticket for a runaway train
|
And everything seems cut and dry
|
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 |
