No, I'm not colorblind
I know the world is black and white
Try to keep an open mind
just can't sleep on this tonight

Stop this train
I wanna get off and go home again
I can't take the speed it's movin' in
I know I can't
But honestly
won't someone stop this train

Don't know how else to say it
don't wanna see my parents go
One generation's led the way
for findin' life out on my own

Stop this train
I wanna get off and go home again
I can't take the speed it's movin' in
I know I can't
But honestly
won't someone stop this train

So scared of gettin' older
I'm only good at being young
So I play the numbers game
to find a way to say that
life has just begun

Had a talk with my old man
said help me understand
He said turn 68
you renegotiate
Don't stop this train
Don't for a minute change the place you're in
Don't think I couldn't ever understand
I tried my hand
John , honestly
we'll never stop this train

Once in awhile when it's good
it'll feel like it should
And they're all still around
and you're still safe and sound
And you don't miss a thing
till you cry when you're driving
away in the dark
just singing

Stop this train
I wanna get off and go home again
I can't take the speed
it's movin' in
I know I can't
'cuz now I see
I'll never stop this train
