Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Call you up in the middle of the night
Like a firefly without a light
You were there like a blow 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
[Verse 2]
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
[Verse 3]
Can you help me to remember how to smile?
Make it somehow 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 drowning in the rain
With a ticket for the runaway train
And everything seems cut and dry
Day and night, earth and sky
Somehow, I just don't believe it
[Verse 4]
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
[Verse 5]
Bought a ticket for the runaway train
Like a madman laughing at the rain
Little out of touch, little insane
It's just easier than dealing with the pain
[Verse 6]
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
[Verse 7]
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
