Train Rolls On

I don't need a reason to feel like I do
I live the way I want to, I can't wait for you
Oh, I feel good, I feel good, can anybody say it's wrong

You see my life's like a freight train
Burnin down the track
And babe-
The train rolls on
Long after you're gone
The train rolls on
Last night I laid there wondering, who cares
Oh, won't you tell me who cares

Tell me words of wisdom, you know all the lines
You pay the piper someday, but not on my time
Everybody needs a friend
And the touch of a lover's hand
It'd be a shame to waste a good day
Worryin' about it all
Because - the train rolls on

Long after you're gone
The train rolls on
I've wondered, yes I've wondered
What does it matter, what does it matter?

If you want me, why weren't you there?
If you need me
You should have showed me you care
And if you love me, well babe I've waited too long

All the money in the world can't change the truth
All the lovers you've had, can't buy back your youth
All the people and the tears and the years
Have passed on by
It seems my world's like a freight train
Burning up the track
And babe - the train rolls on

Long after you're gone
The train rolls on
It keeps pushing on and on and on
The train rolls on
I've wondered, yes I've wondered
What does it matter?
What does it matter?
