The Train I Ride Lyrics - Alison Moyet

I've been keeping you safe inside for the longest time 

I've being trying to keep alive the paper kisses you sign 

And even now when any body breathes you name 

I prepare to feel that pain 

Bearing down like a train coming through in a minute 

Oh it's war, it's farce, it's cinema 

It's one long ride an inch too far 

The louder you scream, the faster you go 

The more that you learn the less that you know 

I brought a ticket and there's no way I can ride but alone 

But somewhere it stops and that's letting go 

Didn't want to be right tonight, you were out of line 

I made a meal of this mess of mine for the very last time 

And one day when you stumble, I won't break your fall 

It won't hurt any more 

But I'll ride on the train coming through in a minute 

Going south and on so let it come 

The train a ride won't always run 

I got a ticket and it's going to take a while, going slow 

But it's going to stop and that's letting go 

I took my chances and I'm going to have to go with the flow 

But somewhere it stops and that's letting go
