I keep wishing you'd fly away
How can you hold yourself down?
You carry on like this every other day
You're turning into the sound
You've got touchin' on the line
But leaving is on your mind
You tell me everything is fine, just fine
On a runaway train tonight
You say, "I love you another way"
You say you're leaving this town
You drive me up to your hideaway
As you were burning it down
You've got touchin' on the line
But leaving is on your mind
You tell me everything is fine, just fine
On a runaway train tonight
I need a reason to keep away
Or get up off my back
I can't stop it or turn away
Until I run out of track
I got touchin' on the line
But leaving is on my mind
I'll tell you everything is fine, just fine
On a runaway train tonight
On a runaway train tonight
On a runaway train tonight
On a runaway train tonight
