Waiting in vain
For that midnight train
Heading nowhere
My head it burns
As the engine churns
Nothing at all clear
Well life here, has disappeared
Nothing makes sense
Everyone's too tense
The atmosphere's so dense
And the burdens immense
Hallowed riding through this beaten track
Not even caring if I ever want to make it back
The woman I love and the baby she's carrying
I hate to have to leave them alone and worrying
But sometimes you just can't change the circumstance
And I know I'm never gonna get another chance
To ride, high high
Ride my high hopes
Yeah Ride, high high
Ride my high hopes
And fly, high high
Close to my dreams
Yeah fly, high high
High on my dreams
(SOLO)
Am I being selfish?
Am I being foolish?
Or am I being what I want to be?
Am I being crazy?
Am I being lazy?
Am I neglecting the love she have for me?
Her father said if I ever see you again boy!
I'm gonna shoot you right between the eyes!
Look at what you done to my baby's life!
You got her pregnant now you're saying goodbye!
(Musical interlude)
I know no one else would ever understand
The man I always wanted to be
And it's not that I don't love her dearly
It's that I just got my big opportunity
And if it was another man in my position
I would feel the same as everyone else do
Only you can know your own predicament
And to yourself you just got to be true
I swear all I ever needed was to love her
And all that could fill me was this chance
And if I stay to make everyone happy
I'd be cold and regretful for the rest of my life
(musical interlude)
And if I make it back someday
Thru the mist and the mountain of sorrow
And if it's only my child who would forgive me
Well then my soul would rest in peace where ever it may go
Am I being careless?
Am I being fearless?
Am I being not what I should be?
Am I being bad?
Am I being mad?
Or am I being as happy as I could feel?
To ride, high high
Ride my high hopes
Yeah Ride, high high
Ride my high hopes
And fly, high high
Close to my dreams
Yeah fly, high high
High on my dreams
Waiting in vain
For that midnight train
Heading nowhere
Dwindling in thought
Wondering if I ought
To leave here!
