John Mayer - Stop This Train lyrics

No I'm not color blind I know the world is black and white Try to keep an open mind but... I just can't sleep on this tonight Stop this train I want to get off and go home again I can't take the speed it's moving in I know I can't But honestly won't someone stop this train Don't know how else to say it, don't want to see my parents go One generation's length away From fighting life out on my own Stop this train I want to get off and go home again I can't take the speed it's moving in I know I can't but honestly won't someone stop this train So scared of getting older I'm only good at being young So I play the numbers game to find away to say that life has just begun Had a talk with my old man Said help me understand He said turn 68, you'll renegotiate Don't stop this train Don't for a minute change the place you're in Don't think I couldn't ever understand I tried my hand John, honestly we'll never stop this train See once in a while when it's good It'll feel like it should And they're all still around And you're still safe and sound And you don't miss a thing 'til you cry when you're driving away in the dark. Singing stop this train I want to get off and go home again I can't take this speed it's moving in I know I can't Cause now I see I'll never stop this train (think I got 'em now)
