Its well past midnight
And I'm miles from my bed
Got the TV on
Watching others live instead
I've been chasing happiness
If it would only stay awhile
I'd trade away the next thousand years
To dance a minute with a smile
This train I'm on
Always searching for the promised land
Every day the sun goes down
While today slips through my hands
Memories in picture frames
All the people faded black
The figures lost their meaning
Cause there aint no going back
I've wrapped myself in longing
Baptized myself with fear
I've been running from just living
And I've soaked myself in tears
This train I'm on
Always searching for the promised land
Every day the sun goes down
While today slips through my hands
We stopped at future
I had too much yet to do
We stopped at my past
But I wouldnt let go of you
Every stop worth leaving
Every stop I held the line
I think I'm riding but I'm really just hiding
It's a way to pass my time
This train I'm on
Always searching for the promised land
Every day the sun goes down
While today slips through my hands
