As he sat down upon the train
Silence settled in his brain
He reached out his hand
And touched her hair

He struggled with the
Same old though
Should he tell her
Should he not

He felt her presence
Everywhere

Whatever comes between us
Don't let it stand in your way
This is what he'd come
Here to say

She just smiled
And read a book
Gave him such a
Gentle look

He felt a pain right
Through his chest
He pictured back to
When they met

Open door on a movie set
Her brown eyes took
His breath
And every word she

Spoke to him
Went like a bullet to his heart
Thats what he remembers
From the start

Now they're off
Searching in vain
Out of control
Just like a runaway train
Can't see that its
Not up to them
Soon just like a river
They'll be back home again

He sat up through
The hours it takes
Passing through the Northern lakes
Til the sleeping giant was in his sight

He knew that shed been drifting some
Wondered where his Faith had gone
He stayed awake most
Of the night

Whatever makes you happy
I won't stand in your way
Words you hope you never
Have to say

Now they're off
Searching in vain
Out of control
Just like a runaway train
Can't see that its
Not up to them
Soon just like a river
They'll be rack home again

She watched him toss
And try to sleep
Struggle with his
Demons deep

She thought of all
That they'd been through
Imagining her life alone
No where he was

That was home
She wondered if he knew
That every word
He spoke to her

Went like a bullet
To her heart
Thats the way its
Been right from the start

Now theyre off
Searching in vain
Out of control
Just like a runaway train
Can't see that its
Not up to them
Soon just like a river
They'll be rack home again
