[Verse 1] No I'm not color blind I know the world is black and white I try to keep an open mind But I just can't sleep on this tonight [Chorus] Stop this train I want to get off and go home again I can't take the speed it's moving in I know I can't But honestly, won't someone stop this train [Verse 2] Don't know how else to say it I don't want to see my parents go One generation's length away From fighting life out on my own [Chorus] Stop this train I want to get off and go home again I can't take the speed it's moving in I know I can't But honestly, won't someone stop this train [Verse 3] So scared of getting older I'm only good at being young So I play the numbers game To find away to say that life has just begun Had a talk with my old man Said "help me understand" He said "turn sixty-eight" "You'll renegotiate" [Chorus] "Don't stop this train Don't for a minute change the place you're in And don't think I couldn't ever understand I tried my hand John, honestly we'll never stop this train" [Bridge] Once in a while, when it's good It'll feel like it should When you're all still around And you're still safe and sound And you don't miss a thing Till you cry when you're driving away in the dark [Chorus] Singing, "Stop this train I want to get off and go home again I can't take the speed it's moving in I know I can't Cause now I see, we'll never stop this train"
