|
As he sat down upon the train |
|
Silence settled in his brain |
|
He reached out his hand and touched her hair |
|
He struggled with the same old though |
|
Should he tell her, should he not |
|
He felt her presence everywhere |
|
|
|
Whatever comes between us |
|
Don't let it stand in your way |
|
This is what he'd come here to say |
|
|
|
She just smiled and read a book |
|
Gave him such a gentle look |
|
He felt a pain right through his chest |
|
He pictured back to when they met |
|
Open door on a movie set |
|
Her brown eyes took his breath |
|
|
|
And every word she spoke to him |
|
Went like a bullet to his heart |
|
That's what he remembers from the start |
|
|
|
Now they're off searching in vain |
|
Out of control just like a runaway train |
|
Can't see that it's not up to them |
|
Soon just like a river they'll be back home again |
|
|
|
He sat up through the hours it takes |
|
Passing through the Northern lakes |
|
Til the sleeping giant was in his sight |
|
He knew that she'd been drifting some |
|
Wondered where his faith had gone |
|
He stayed awake most of the night |
|
Whatever makes you happy |
|
I won't stand in your way |
|
Words you hope you never have to say |
|
|
|
Now they're off searching in vain |
|
Out of control just like a runaway train |
|
Can't see that it's not up to them |
|
Soon just like a river they'll be back home again |
|
|
|
She watched him toss and try to sleep |
|
Struggle with his demons deep |
|
She thought of all that they'd been through |
|
Imagining her life alone |
|
No where he was that was home |
|
She wondered if he knew |
|
|
|
That every word he spoke to her |
|
Went like a bullet to her heart |
|
That's the way it's been right from the start |
|
|
|
Now they're off searching in vain |
|
Out of control just like a runaway train |
|
Can't see that it's not up to them |
|
Soon just like a river they'll be back home again |
|
|
|
Now they're off searching in vain |
|
Out of control just like a runaway train |
|
Can't see that it's not up to them |
|
Soon just like a river they'll be back home again |
