| 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 |
