RUNAWAY TRAINS #1

Music & Lyrics Written By Howard Axtell

Days go by like reading a book,
Living the parts that we play.
Like runaway trains, headed for nowhere,
the world is going crazy and it’s drivin’ me insane.

Tonight I’m feelin’ uncertain,
I keep lookin’ back tryin’ to find my way
My heart just needs reassuring,
Love is the only truth I know will comfort me

I light another cigarette, I should be sleeping,
but I‘m sittin’ here alone in the dark
I remember life used to be so easy,
following my instincts as I walked out the door

Where’s the path I used to follow,
where’s the truth I used to know
There’s a tiger runnin’ loose in my heart tonight,
tearin’ up my troubled soul

A rich man’s addicted to his money,
Like a thief to his gun
A poor man keeps on goin’ hungry
and the hand he was dealt, will put him in the ground
Open your doors to a stranger, take a step into the sun.
Gotta find out what happened to that lovin’ feelin’,
Lord knows it’s got to still be somewhere around.

Tonight I’m feelin’ uncertain,
I keep lookin’ back tryin’ to find my way
My heart just needs reassuring,
Love is the only truth I know will comfort me
Love is the only truth I know will comfort me
Love is the only truth I know will comfort me
Love is the only truth I know will comfort me
Love is the only truth I know will comfort me

Days go by like reading a book,
Living the parts that we play
