Runaway Train Lyrics



When I had it all up

And I can't explain why

I keep on changing names

Try to depend on time, you know

To get you out of my mind



What makes it worse than that

Is I can look away

Like watchin' something dull, you know

Holdin' on through your desires



[Chorus:]

Like a runaway train

Never think my mind will be the same

So now I'm telling you

There's nothing left to show

The silence is over

Some fortune grasp

And we'll be on the road

For you my heart is beating fast



Sometimes, sometimes there's a moment

When all things appear brand new

Maybe the moment is being gone

Never left the sign



Most everything I touched

Seems to fade away

But my dreams are unmisteakable

From effect of your desire



Like a runaway train

Never in my mind will be the same

And now I'm telling you

There's nothing left to show

The silence is over

Some fortune grasp

And we'll be on the road

For you my heart is beating fast



So, if you ever

If you ever change your mind

And, did you ever

Did you ever find your wings in flight, away?



Like a runaway train

My runaway train

Like a runaway train

And we'll be on the road

For you my heart is beating fast
