Stop This Train

[00:22.20] No, I'm not color blind
[00:25.12] I know the world is black and white
[00:32.73] Try to keep an open mind
[00:35.57] But I just can't sleep on this, tonight
[00:43.21] Stop this train
[00:45.81] I want to get off and go home again
[00:51.06] I can't take the speed it's moving in
[00:56.52] I know I can't
[00:59.12] But, honestly, won't someone stop this train?
[01:16.17] Don't know how else to say it
[01:18.50] I don't want to see my parents go
[01:26.39] One generation's length away
[01:29.48] From fighting life out on my own
[01:36.91] Stop this train
[01:39.45] I want to get off and go home again
[01:44.86] I can't take the speed it's moving in
[01:50.20] I know I can't
[01:52.65] But, honestly, won't someone stop this train?
[02:29.67] So scared of getting older
[02:33.87] I'm only good at being young
[02:41.55] So I play the numbers game
[02:43.71] To find a way to say that life has just begun
[02:52.40] Had a talk with my old man
[02:55.01] Said, "Help me understand"
[02:57.66] He said, "Turn sixty-eight
[03:00.23] You'll renegotiate"
[03:02.65] "Don't stop this train
[03:05.21] Don't for a minute change the place you're in
[03:10.62] And don't think I couldn't ever understand
[03:15.97] I tried my hand
[03:18.53] John, honestly, we'll never stop this train"
[03:35.21] Once in a while, when it's good
[03:38.54] It'll feel like it should
[03:41.14] And they're all still around
[03:43.99] And you're still safe and sound
[03:46.54] And you don't miss a thing
[03:49.28] 'Till you cry when you're driving away in the dark
[03:55.98] Singing, stop this train
[03:58.63] I want to get off and go home again
[04:04.36] I can't take the speed it's moving in
[04:09.71] I know, I can't
[04:12.29] 'Cause now I see I'll never stop this train.
