I’m riding the train back home to my baby
Rolling fast down the tracks
Going home to where my baby’s alone
But not for long

This train is going my way
Been away for my baby for days
This train is taking me home
Been away for my baby too long

Soon I’ll be pulling into the town where my baby is at
Looking her up and tracking her down
I’ll find here in no time flat
I’ll take her back to my home and make her my own

This train is going my way
Been away for my baby for days
This train is taking me home
Been away for my baby too long

The conductor announces the stopping of the train in my town
I see my baby down the line

This train is going my way
Been away for my baby for days
This train is taking me home
Been away for my baby too long

Come on girl, let me know what’s on your mind
Its just the same old problem, we’ve been over so many times
We’ve got to find a way
There’s nothing more to say
Gotta get down to the heart of the problem

The heart of the problem
is the one that’s getting cold
letting our love die as its growing old
This job’s made for two
we can’t let it get between me and you
we gotta get down to the heart of the problem

Come on girl, we can work this whole thing out
What we’ve got together can get beyond a doubt
We’ve got to find a way
There’s nothing more to say
Gotta get down to the heart of the problem

The heart of the problem
is the one that’s getting cold
letting our love die as its growing old
This job’s made for two
we can’t let it get between me and you
we gotta get down to the heart of the problem

I know that together we can do it
And I know that together we can get through it

The heart of the problem
is the one that’s getting cold
letting our love die as its growing old
This job’s made for two
we can’t let it get between me and you
we gotta get down to the heart of the problem

I dropped it, I almost lost it
and I know what I did wrong
Up and down aren’t the same things now I’ve found

Education now I’d given it up for high times
But what you learn from up there is where you fall
Hold me here if you want me to stay around here
If you let go, I’ll be gone

I got some, but not the only one
and I know what I did wrong
In and out aren’t the same thing now I’ve found

Education now I’d given it up for high times
But what you learn from up there is where you fall
Hold me here if you want me to stay around here
If you let go, I’ll be gone

I pounded, I almost drowned
and I know what I did wrong
In and out aren’t the same thing now I’ve found

Education now I’d given it up for high times
But what you learn from up there is where you fall
Hold me here if you want me to stay around here
If you let go, I’ll be gone

Jethro says the sun is shining
but he says its got to go
I hope hope he’s got it all mixed up
cause this darkness has got to blow

I’ve been thinking about what’s been happening
and I’m getting pretty low
Its hard to see which way is up
I guess but I don’t know

Running away from your troubles
Where will you ever be?
Running away from your troubles
When will you ever see?

Jerry says to keep on truckin’
cause this trip is strange and long
Strange I might just believe
but not too long, he’s gone.

I’ve been thinking about what’s been happening
and I thought I’d write this song
Still don’t know which way is up
I guess but could be wrong

Running away from your troubles
Where will you ever be?
Running away from your troubles
When will you ever see?

Where will you ever be?
When will you ever see?

I don’t know why I try to put down
things I know are right
I’m not much clearer than a
man in black running at night

I’ve been thinking about what’s been happening
and maybe soon I will see
Where to run to from my troubles
to be where I can be free

Running away from your troubles
Where will you ever be?
Running away from your troubles
When will you ever see?

Water falls onto the rocks below me
Feel the sun up overhead
Its just begun, light spark and melt away again
Feel it come into your head

When these days fade away
and a simple life lies ahead
I’m gonna look at you girl
and gonna see what we’ve done
Gonna see that its the only one

Open time to when you need to know it
All at once it starts again
See the fall then spring and then its over
Things take time will then begin

When these days fade away
and a simple life lies ahead
I’m gonna look at you girl
and gonna see what we’ve done
Gonna see that its the only one

After all the time’s gone
but still we made it
The we’s gone from two to four
One for all, today and then tomorrow
Keep it going even more

When these days fade away
and a simple life lies ahead
I’m gonna look at you girl
and gonna see what we’ve done
Gonna see that its the only one

I’ve been seeing you
around where we’d go,
doing what we’d do
and I think its wrong
what’s gone on

I see that what you wanted
was to get away
But you can’t let go when you
don’t know what to say

I know that what we’ve got
can make it through today
I’ve seen the way you look back at me
I want tomorrow
And every day
To know we made it through today

I see that you
Don’t know what to do
With how you feel
It’s become the time
To draw a line in the sand

You think that we can limit
the way we are
But you can’t stop living
even if you think we’ll be apart

I know that what we’ve got
can make it through today
I’ve seen the way you look back at me
I want tomorrow
And every day
To know we made it through today

Remember what we had
It’s still what we have
I can
If you can begin again

I can see
That we need to be
What makes us what
we can be
and I think today
we can be that way

I know that what we’ve got
can make it through today
I’ve seen the way you look back at me
I want tomorrow
And every day
To know we made it through today
