I keep wishing you'd fly away

How can you hold yourself down?

You carry on like this every other day

You're turning into the sound...

You've got touchin' on the line, but leaving is
on your mind

You tell me everything is fine - just fine

On a runaway train tonight

You say I love you in another way

You say you are leaving this town

Drive me up to your hideaway, as you were burning
it down

Chorus

Now I need a reason to keep away, or get up off
my back

I can't stop it or turn away until I run out of
track

I got touchin' on the line, but leaving is on my
mind

I'll tell you everything is fine - just fine

On a runaway train tonight
