Runaway Train Songtext
von Phoebe Katis

Put on my dress, do up my hair
In the way I know you like
Run out the door into the winter air
God I hope I′m not alone tonight

I'm at the restaurant window
I hardly catch my breath
Before I′m losing it for good
You're at our favourite table
Holding a hand that isn't mine
Oh God I wish I understood

That was four years ago
Now I have nowhere to go
On this cold November night
I′m on a runaway train to another life

Open my eyes and it′s a summer day
And I am falling through the cracks
Every road another memory lane
But I know there's no turning back


I′m on the corner, where we first met
And you are reaching out to me
And every argument, every regret
Becomes a distant memory

But that was two years, now I have nowhere to go
On this evening in July
I'm on a runaway train to another life
I′m on a runaway, I'm on a runaway
Train to another life
I′m on a runaway, I'm on a runaway
Train to another life

You're in every window I′m walking past
Your arm around me making me laugh
In the song that I hear on this taxi ride
I′m pulling up and she's by your side

And I′m screaming your name and you're kissing my mouth
But really I′m saying nothing at all
Now I'm shaking her hand what a beautiful ring
You′re holding my gaze like it's nothing

I'm on a runaway, I′m on a runaway
Train to another life
I′m on a runaway, I'm on a runaway
Train to another life (Oh)


I′m on a runaway, I'm on a runaway
Train to another life
I′m on a runaway, I'm on a runaway
Train to another life
I′m on a runaway, I'm on a runaway
Train to another life
