No, I'm not colorblind
I know the world is black and white
I try to keep an open mind
But I just can't sleep on this tonight
Stop this train
I want to get off
And go home again
I can't take the speed it's moving in
I know I can't
But honestly, won't someone stop this train?
Don't know how else to say it
I don't want to see my parents go
One generation's length away
From fighting life out on my own
Stop this train
I want to get off
And go home again
I can't take the speed it's moving in
I know I can't
But honestly, won't someone stop this train?
So scared of getting older
I'm only good at being young
So I play the numbers game
To find a way to say that life has just begun
Had a talk with my old man
Said "help me understand"
He said "turn sixty-eight
You renegotiate"
"Don't stop this train
Don't for a minute change the place you're in
Don't think I couldn't ever understand
I tried my hand
John, honestly we'll never stop this train"
Once in awhile, when it's good
It'll feel like it should
And they're all still around
And you're still safe and sound
And you don't miss a thing
Till you cry when you're driving away in the dark
Singing
Stop this train
I want to get off
And go home again
I can't take the speed it's moving in
I know I can't
Cause now I see I will never stop this train

vocal WOWWWWWW! I don't even have words to discribe how much this song means to me. John Mayer has been discribing a lot about how I feel...but in this song..wow...this is something I think about everytime...how time is passing, and soemtimes we just want it to stop, and go back. Sometimes I think John Mayer can ger inside my mind..seriously..he talks about hings I think about all the time.
Anyway....awsome song...really..LOVE IT!

That is probably the one statement that fits me perfectly at this moment in my life...This song is beautifully written, as are any of John's songs..I got to see him perform this live in February at Rupp Arena in Lex. and his show kicks ASS...big time!...Keep 'em comin John
