Midnight Express

(album: Oh Boy! - 1977)

Boarding the midnight express
Leaving my world in a mess
Running away
Hoping to find a new day

Running away from his wife
Who's given him most of her life
Somewhere out there
He just doesn't care
That I love him

I can't take another day
I just got to get away

Boarding the midnight express
Leaving my world in a mess
Running away
Hoping to find a new day

Running away from her man
Who's given the best that he can
Somewhere out there
She just doesn't care
That I love her

I can't take another day
I just got to get away...
I can't take another day
I can't take another day
I just gotta get away

Maybe I was wrong
A little bit too strong
Is it too late now?

Maybe it was me
I was too blind to see
Is it too late now?

And as I turn around
I see you in the corner
Sitting all alone

Let's turn around again
Start making our way back home
