You took your seat on the midnight train
Said that you were never coming back again
You don't want no restrictions but you want to be free
You really don't know what you're trying to be

You left all your dreams and your letter of lies
Your minds on tomorrow as you said your goodbyes
You're hoping and you're praying that your dreams will come true
Put by something old get yourself something new

No more goodbyes
The world lies before you
No more close ties
Your destiny calls you

You think that you're so smart that nothing can go wrong
And that life is a tune of which you wrote the song
It's all in your mind that it's not quite right
As the midnight train carries on through the night

Life is a race and its speed will increase
You don't realise that your music has peace
You lie on the floor broken dreams all around
Searching for love that can never be found

No more goodbyes
The world lies before you
No more close ties
Your destiny calls you

On the Midnight Train

You took your seat on the midnight train
Said that you were never coming back again
You don't want no restrictions but you want to be free
You really don't know what you're trying to be

You left all your dreams and your letter of lies
Your minds on tomorrow as you said your goodbyes
You're hoping and you're praying that your dreams will come true
Put by something old get yourself something new

No more goodbyes
The world lies before you
No more close ties
Your destiny calls you

On the Midnight Train
