Rosanne Cash's, "Runaway Train"
Misheard Lyrics:
We'll pay up in black
When this marker comes due
To try and get off now
It's a fantasy scene
Go to a lanterns
And runaway trains
Steel rails and hard linings
Are always confused
I have been here before this
And now it's with you
I'm worried about you
I'm worried about me
We're lighting the fuses
And counting the dreams
And what are the choices
For those who remain
The sign of the cross
Of a runaway train
When this marker comes due
To try and get off now
It's a fantasy scene
Go to a lanterns
And runaway trains
Steel rails and hard linings
Are always confused
I have been here before this
And now it's with you
I'm worried about you
I'm worried about me
We're lighting the fuses
And counting the dreams
And what are the choices
For those who remain
The sign of the cross
Of a runaway train
Original Lyrics:
Will pay up in blood
When this marker comes due
To try and get off now
It's about as insane
As those who wave lanterns
At runaway trains
Steel rails and hard lives
Are always in twos
I have been here before this
And now it's with you
I'm worried about you
I'm worried about me
We're lighting the fuses
And counting to three
And what are the choices
For those who remain
The sign of the cross
On a runaway train
When this marker comes due
To try and get off now
It's about as insane
As those who wave lanterns
At runaway trains
Steel rails and hard lives
Are always in twos
I have been here before this
And now it's with you
I'm worried about you
I'm worried about me
We're lighting the fuses
And counting to three
And what are the choices
For those who remain
The sign of the cross
On a runaway train
