Sonya Kitchell - Train lyrics

I've just taken a seat on the train I walked through busy streets down a shadowy lane I just bought 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 I pray for it to speed up, but I wish it would slow down my body quivers with anticipation for what lies ahead wood is thrown onto the fire that cries out to be fed mist shrouds the dawn, 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 know 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 a seeming end... out of one window, I saw rain I looked through the other, and I felt the warm sun's 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 down and only only the little things are right
