Time goes by, you wonder why
Another day gone when you blink your eye
We can't start over, we can't slow down
We can't stay forever on the edge of town
What do I have to do, to ever get it through to you
There's a whole, wide world beyond the one we're living in
Some things are better and some things worse
Some things are waiting if we get there first
Who can tell what tomorrow may bring?
I'm going to the river of no return and I'm gonna ride on the rain
Goin' down to the railway station, just to wait for a runaway train
There's always been a heart in me that's leaving on the midnight plane
I don't want to live in uncertainty, but I can go there, just the same
Same old city, same old scene
Another day gone in the old routine
We can't start over, we can't slow down
We can't seem to make it to the higher ground
What do I have to do to ever get it through to you
There's a lot of life beyond the bit we're living in
Some things are better and some things worse
Some things are waiting if we get there first
Who can tell what tomorrow might bring?
I'm going to the river of no return and I'm gonna ride on the rain
Goin' down to the railway station, just to wait for a runaway train
There's always been a destiny that's calling out my name
I don't want to live in uncertainty, but I can go there, just the same
I'm going to the river of no return and I'm gonna ride on the rain
Goin' down to the railway station, just to wait for a runaway train
There's always been a part of me that's leaving on the midnight plane
I don't want to live in uncertainty, but I can go there, just the same
I'm going to the river of no return and I'm gonna ride on the rain
Goin' down to the railway station, just to wait for a runaway train
There's always been a heart in me that's leaving on the midnight plane
I don't want to live in uncertainty, but I can go there, just the same
