Railway Tracks

Stage was set so wide and clean
Joker's face could not be seen
Digging through the same old news
Keeping off those midnight blues

No one wants to face the wreck
Rock & roll on your track
When your levels are down so low
Ain't no further place to go

Life doesn't run on railway tracks
Life doesn't run on railway tracks
It twists and turns
It's not white or black

The past goes fast, the present's dear
The future's bright, the pathway is clear
We're all in this game, let's end this race
It takes some time to find your place

A giant step, put one foot out
Find your voice, let out a shout
I must get out of here
For a glass or wine, a glass of beer

Life doesn't run on railway tracks
Life doesn't run on railway tracks
It twists and turns
It's not white or black

Once in bed, the blood flows strong
Feels so good when you belong
Air smells sweet, the wind feels good
In this familiar neighborhood

Walk in the park, I take your hand
You're the one that understands
Let no doubt, has played a part
And you my love, my darling heart

Life doesn't run on railway tracks
Life doesn't run on railway tracks
It twists and turns
It's not white or black

Life doesn't run on railway tracks
Life doesn't run on railway tracks
It twists and turns
It's not white or black
