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
