Landscape flashes, batten down the hatches
Trees and streams, movie reels, through windows on a train
Shades of you, midnight blue fall into the unknown
They don’t fade away, it you store ‘em for a winter
They don’t fade away, if you keep ‘em in our larder

I wanna make love to you on a runaway train
No route or tracks of tears - just an open, rolling plain
We’ll crash into ocean, wrapped in waves of foam
Lost in you, you lost in me, our way to roam
On a runaway train

This train rolls in, wheels sigh and break
Your arched back against the city scape
Eyes of wine, tell tale signs, let’s shelter from this storm
Build a love nest, open fire, watch the flames transform
They won’t burn out, if you gather all our embers
They won’t burn out, if you fan them during winter

I wanna make love to you on a runaway train
No route or tracks of tears - just an open, rolling plain
We’ll crash into ocean, wrapped in waves of foam
Lost in you, you lost in me, our way to roam
On a runaway train

It’s a beautiful night, turn down that worry
It’s a beautiful night, turn your face to the wind and the sea

I wanna make love to you on a runaway train
No route or tracks of tears - just an open, rolling plain
We’ll crash into ocean, wrapped in waves of foam
Lost in you, you lost in me, our way to roam
On a runaway train

Landscape flashes, batten down the hatches
