I've just taken a seat on the train   I walk through busy streets   Down a shadowy lane   I just got my ticket for the ride   There's no turning back now   No matter what I decide      Steel body moves fast   Hinges pounding against the ground   I sink into my seat now   I pray for it to speed up   While I wish it would slow down      My body quivers with anticipation   For what lies ahead   Wood is thrown on to the fire   That cries out to be fed   Mist shrouds the dawn   And so ahead, I cannot see   The train, it moves ever forward   Into the misty sea      There's so many faces   Most of the time I feel so alone   There's so many places   Will I ever stop?   And own my own home      I know I'm gonna get there   But I'm not sure when   Nor do I know where I'm going   So I won't pretend   I cannot see beyond the horizon   Nor around the bend   The train it moves ever forward   Without to see the end      Out of one window   I saw rain   I looked through the other   And I felt the warm suns rays   The wind, it gently blew across my weary shoulder   And time whispered in my ear, "Child, you're just gonna keep getting older."   But I've done nothing more   Than take a seat   On this here train   Yet my life turned upside   And only, only the little things remain
