Ain't No Brakeman

(앨범: Spinning Coin - 1995)

Staring down a double line
We're flowing off behind
I'll never see your face no more
I left you back there on that shore

We had a chance
It slipped away
Don't call my name
There ain't no brakeman on this train
There ain't no brakeman on this train

There ain't no engineer
To pull that throttle back
It's full steam up ahead
On down that windy track

There ain't no way
To turn around
From all the pain
There ain't no brakeman on this train

I'm not saying that
You are wrong, for playing to win
Watch what you're doing now
Watch what you're doing now
The things that you throw away
They won't come again

We sat down at that station
You were trying to decide
Was I your destination?
Or just one stop on the ride?

We make mistakes
Now we pay
Can't turn back
There ain't no brakeman on this train
There ain't no brakeman on this train
...
