Lyrics

Stop This Train

[Verse 1]

No, I'm not colourblind

I know the world is black and white

Try to keep an open mind

But I just can't sleep on this tonight

[Chorus]

Stop this train

I wanna 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

Don't wanna see my parents go

One generation's length away

From finding life out on my own

[Chorus]

Stop this train

I wanna 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 a way to say that life has just begun

[Bridge 1]

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, tried honestly

We'll never stop this train"

[Bridge 2]

Once in a while, when it's good

It'll feel like it should

And they're all still around

And we're still safe and sound

And you don't miss a thing

'Til you cry when you're driving away in the dark

[Chorus]

Singing stop this train

I wanna 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

I'll never stop this train
