| The Train Ride |
![]() |
| But you told me last night that this dream could never be You said there was no way that you could ever love me You had been hurt and had your head stuck in the dirt I have to swallow back the lump in my throat It's like finally finding the castle and being stuck in the moat I am more confused now than ever before Why don't I run away from you as fast as I can and never look back I know now that this train is on the wrong track Now when I see you, it still brings me great joy even though last night, I just felt like a toy You are a great and wonderful guy I wish sometimes you would just let yourself fly And forget all the worries and possiblities And forget all the if's, and the maybe's On one hand, I want you and think it could work On the other, I don't have the faith or the capability to believe Something has changed, before I would tell you all these things that I feel But now I have to write them just to realize what's real If I tell you what I think will I get hurt worse I have decided the answer is of course So what do I do now, sit back and keep on riding the train I don't think I like it here because I am in the crash lane I think I need to stand aside and watch as you go on by Then when it derails, I wouldn't have been along for the ride I will probably cry as you roll on waving goodbye I will miss you and it will hurt very badly for a time But like all the other pain in my life, it will just make me stronger I am hurting right now and I just can't take this any longer If I leave at this moment, at least I know the pain will have an end Because the longer I ride, the more pain I will abide You say things and you do not think of how it will make me feel And I can't live day by day wondering if this is real For just me or if you will ever be able to feel You already have a big part of my heart It's going to really hurt now that we will be apart I am sure that someday I will see you somewhere and when I do I truly hope that I can smile and say how are you But if not and the tears start to fall, please walk away like you didn't see me at all Copyrighted by Amy L.Hicks 2000 |
