Lyrics
0:09Call you up in the middle of the night
0:13Like a firefly without a light
0:17You were there like a blowtorch burning
0:21I was a key that could use a little turning
0:25So tired that I couldn't even sleep
0:29So many secrets I couldn't keep
0:34I promised myself I wouldn't weep
0:38One more promise I couldn't keep
0:41It seems no one can help me now
0:45I'm in too deep; there's no way out
0:49This time I have really led myself astray
0:58Runaway train never going back
1:02Wrong way on a one-way track
1:06Seems like I should be getting somewhere
1:10Somehow I'm neither here nor there
1:19Can you help me remember how to smile
1:23Make it somehow all seem worthwhile
1:27How on earth did I get so jaded
1:31Life's mystery seems so faded
1:35I can go where no one else can go
1:39I know what no one else knows
1:43Here I am just a-drownin' in the rain
1:47With a ticket for a runaway train
1:51And everything seems cut and dried
1:55Day and night earth and sky
1:59Somehow I just don't believe it
2:08Runaway train never going back
2:12Wrong way on a one-way track
2:16Seems like I should be getting somewhere
2:20Somehow I'm neither here nor there
2:57Bought a ticket for a runaway train
3:01Like a madman laughing at the rain
3:05A little out of touch a little insane
3:09It's just easier than dealing with the pain
3:13Runaway train never going back
3:17Wrong way on a one-way track
3:22Seems like I should be getting somewhere
3:26Somehow I'm neither here nor there
3:30Runaway train nevering back
3:34Runaway train tearing up the track
3:38Runaway train burning in my veins
3:42I run away but it always seems the same
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 I 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 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 a-drownin' in the rain With a ticket for a runaway train And everything seems cut and dried 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 nevering back Runaway train tearing up the track Runaway train burning in my veins I run away but it always seems the same
