Starlight Express (From "Starlight Express")

How many times have you found

Though you were firm on the ground

Still the world around you sways?

You notice all that you’ve got

Does not add up to a lot

And the way ahead’s a maze

You’ve used everything inside you

So maybe it’s time you tried to find a brand new power

To shine a light a light to brighten up your darkest hour

Starlight express, hears your distress

He’s there, all around

Starlight express, well outside you, yes

He’s waiting to be found

Starlight express, hears your distress

He’s there, all around

Starlight express, will answer you, yes

When your good nights have been said

And you are lying in bed

With the covers pulled up tight

And though you count every sheep

You get the feeling that sleep

Is gonna stay away tonight

That's when you hear it coming

That’s when you hear the humming of the midnight train

Here again, can't explain that midnight train, that midnight train

Starlight express, you must confess

Are you real? Yes or no

Starlight express, answer me yes

I don't want you to go

Want you to take me away

But bring me back before daylight

And in the time between

Take me to everywhere

But don't abandon me there

I just wanna say I've been

I believe in you completely

Though I may be dreaming sweetly

I can hear that train

Here again, can’t explain that midnight train

That midnight train

Starlight express, you must confess

Are you real? Yes, or no

Starlight express, answer me yes

I don't want you to go

Starlight express, answer me yes

I don't want you to go

Starlight express? You must confess

Are you real, yes, or no

Starlight express, answer me yes

I don't want you to go
