Stop This Train

(roubado do blog do Hugo)




No, I'm not colorblind
I know the world is black and white
Try to keep an open mind
But I just can't sleep on this tonight

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
But honestly, won't someone stop this train?

Don't know how else to say it

Don't want to see my parents go
One generation's length away
From fighting life out on my own
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

Had a talk with my old man

Said "help me understand"
He said "turn sixty-eight
You renegotiate"

"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"

Once in awhile, when it's good

It'll feel like it should
And they'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
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
Cause now I see I will never stop this train

Bonito, sem dúvida, tanto o texto como a música!

É curioso que postamos muitas vezes músicas quase ao mesmo tempo...
