Píseň: Runnaway trains

Interpret:
Tom Petty
Album:
Let me up (I've had enough)
Call you up in the middle of the night
 Like a fire flower miles away
 You were there like a blow torch burnin'
 I was a key that could use a little turnin'


 So tired that I couldn't even sleep
 So many secrets I couldn't keep
 Promised myself I wouldn't weep
 One more promise I couldn't keep


 It seems no one can help me now
 I'm in too deep there's no way out
 This time I have really let myself pull stray


 Runaway train never goin' back
 Wrong way on a one way track
 Seems like I should be getting somewhere
 Somehow I'm neither here nor there


 Can you help me remember how to smile
 Make it somehow seem all worth while
 How on earth did I get so jaded
 Last mystery seemed so naked


 I can go where no one else can go
 I know what no one else has known
  Here I am just a drowning in the brain
 With a ticket for a runaway train


 Everything seems judged inside
 Day and night earth and sky
 Somehow I just don't believe it


 Runaway train never goin' back
 Wrong way on a one way track
 Seems like I should be getting somewhere
 Somehow I'm neither here nor there


 Want a ticket for a runaway train?
 Like a madman laughin' at the rain
 A little out of touch little in the brain
 It's just easier to deal with the pain


 Runaway train never goin' back
 Wrong way on a one way track
 Seems like I should be getting somewhere
 Somehow I'm neither here nor there


 Runaway train never comin' back
 Runaway train tearin' up the track
 Runaway train burnin' in my veins
 Run away but it always seems the same
