Fast Train

’All we have to say is let’s get off this train

Before the time runs away’

Fast Train is about wanting to slow Time down with someone but also it’s about knowing what you have to do, with or without the other person. It’s crunch time in a relationship. Will we get off the train together or will we separate? 

Lyrics

I’ve been riding on a fast train 

I see the lights flash by

Looking through the glass to the sky

I’ve been waiting on a strange shore

Watching the boats float past

Wondering how long I’m going to last 

You are the last one I will see, so what’s it gonna be

Does it look like desperation through your eyes when I realise

Time’s not on my side, no no

And there’s nowhere to hide, you know

All we have to say is let’s get off this train before the time runs away

I can’t fake it, I can’t say it again

Well maybe we can make it before the time runs away 

I’ve been riding on a fast train 

I see the lights flash by

Looking through the glass to the sky

I’ve been waiting on a strange shore

Watching the boats float past

Wondering how long I’m going to last 

You are the last one I will know, and if you go, you go

Does it sound like desperation in your ears 

Then disappear and you won’t have to chalk away the years, no no

You won’t have to walk through the fear, you know 

All we have to say is let’s get off this train before the time runs away

I can’t fake it, I can’t say it again

Well maybe we could make it before the time runs away 

Woohoo here comes the train, I wonder will we ever pass this way again

Woohoo it’s blinding me, it’s flying past so fast, like a dream 

Wooohooo

Wooohooo

Wooohoooooooooooooooo
