twenty miles out – a train to nowhere lyrics

[verse]
i’m on a train to nowhere
far from the neon lights
on a rail+road less travelled
as the days run into nights

[verse]
sweet dreams and aspirations
far from the madding crowd
ever near but disappearing
like the sun behind a cloud
[chorus]
i know i should have stayed
here with you
and let it play out
for the rest of our lives
and now i am dismayed
at how i was so reckless
i could have known it
when i let the ego drive

[verse]
they say home’s where the heart is
what drove me to run away?
wild horses couldn’t keep me
my faculties were in decay

[verse]
i see the desert sun arising
an eagle circling high above
though not like me in isolation
on endless travels without love

[chorus]
i know i should have stayed
here with you
and let it play out
for the rest of our lives
and now i am dismayed
at how i was so reckless
i could have known it
when i let the ego drive
[chorus]
when the ego does the driving
it cannot be denied
your life will seem so meaningless
whatever you have tried
when the ego does the driving
it cannot be denied
you’ve been walking on a tightrope
across the great divide
your life will seem so restless
whatever you have tried
