[Verse 1] We keep on running but we can't get to the mountain Behind the mighty [?] years that I have spend I've been sinking like a flower in a fountain When all the world I'm gonna need is heaven sent
[Pre-Chorus] And I've tried my best to get there But I can't afford the bus fair And the storm that's rolling over And it makes me wanna cry
[Chorus] And I was told these dreams were paved with gold There'd be no time for getting old when we were young It's alright, if we're dead, we'll meet tonight We'll fight the dying of the light, we'll catch the sun
[Verse 2] Woke up sleeping on a train that was bound for nowhere Echoes that I could hear were all my own The world would turn and I've become a stranger And I'm tired of watching all the flowers turn to stone
[Pre-Chorus] And I've tried my best to get there but I can't afford the bus fair And the storm that's rolling over and it makes me wanna cry And the cold that gets my shoulder, when it [?] all in the winter And it seems to last forever and it makes me wanna, it makes me wanna cry
