Next Train to Nowhere

I have to go. I have to get away.
I just can't stand to live this way.
I don't know how, but I need to get there,
so I'll hop on the next train to nowhere.

"You're not leaving! You'll stay here like before!"
You yell as I run out your back screen door.
It was starting to seem like you didn't care,
so I'll hop on the next train to nowhere.

With a ticket in hand, a new life on my mind,
I can go away and leave you behind.
Soon I'll be gone and I'll never come back,
I think as I picture that railroad track.

I get in the taxi and head to the train,
but when I step out it starts pouring rain,
sometimes life here seems so unfair,
so I'll hop on the next train to nowhere.

It's freezing cold and I'm soaking wet,
You scream my name from your corvette.
Too suprised to speak, I just stare,
but I still get on my train to nowhere.

With a ticket in hand, a new life on my mind,
I'm going to go away and leave you behind.
Soon I'll be gone and I'll never come back,
I think looking at the railroad track.

You run to the side and look into my window,
then down your face tears start to flow,
I still love you, but this life I can't bare,
I'm still going on the next train to nowhere.

The whistle blows and you start running,
the rain falls harder as I also start crying,
a sense of happiness and love filled the air,
on the train that's going nowhere.

With a ticket in hand, a new life on your mind,
you jump on the train to leave everything behind.
Now we're gone, and were never coming back
as we roll together down the railroad track.

With a ticket in hand, a new life on my mind,
you jump on the train to leave everything behind.
We are going together and we won't come back
You think as we roll down the railroad track.
