Runaway Train Lyrics

Call you up in the middle of the night
Like a fire fly without a light
You were there like a blowtorch burnin'
I was a key that could use a little turnin'
So tired and I coulnd't even sleep
So many secrets I couldn't keep
Promised myself I wouldn't leave
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

Chorus:
Runaway train never going back
Wrong way on a one way track
Seems like I should be gettin' somewhere
Somehow I'm neither here nor there

Can you help me remember how to smile
Make it somehow all seem worthwile
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

Everything seems cut and dry
Day and night, earth and sky
Somehow I just don't believe it

Repeat Chorus

Bought a ticket for a runaway train
Like a madman laughin' at the rain
A little out of touch little insane
It's just easier than dealin' with the pain

Repeat Chorus

Runaway train never comin back
Runaway train tearin up the track
Runaway train burnin in my veins
Runaway but it always seems the same
