Cut sharp like a razor steady as a pulse
Like a steam locomotive rolling through the fog
Now time is a locomotive
Repetition on the track
Years keep flying by and by
So many memories I can't keep track
Oh you know this train's moving too damn fast
And you can't ever take it back
Watching your life just wiz on by
Never had a chance to say goodbye
With your head leaning on the glass
Watching time fade to the past
When you pack up your life and put it in a box
And leave it a ll behind
Yeah it's time to move on down the line
Now my head is filled with rust
'Cause the ride's been a little rough
And my heart is full
The seed's been planted
With all the love I took for granted
But it made me who I am
Like a tattoo on my soul
And I wish I could slow this old machine down
But it's something I can't control
Oh you know this train's moving too damn fast
And you can't ever take it back
Watching your life just wiz on by
Never had a chance to say goodbye
With your head leaning on the glass
Watching time fade to the past
When you pack up your life and put it in a box
And leave it a ll behind
Yeah it's time to move on down the line
Just move on down the line
Move on down the line
Yeah move on down the line
Oh it's like a steam locomotive
The engines are getting hot
Gonna ride this train on down the rails
Til the pistons are all shot
