runaway train
Call you up in the middle of the night Like a firefly without a light You were there like a slow torch 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 led myself astray  [Chorus] 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 drownin' in the rain With a ticket for a runaway train  Everything is cut and dry Day and night, earth and sky Somehow I just don't believe it  [Chorus]  Bought a ticket for a runaway train Like a madman laughin' at the rain Little out of touch, little insane Just easier than dealing with the pain  Runaway train never comin' back Runaway train tearin' up the track Runaway train burnin' in my veins Runaway but it always seems the same
