Verse 1:
âI want to get away,â I thought, but where was I to go?
the cars are full, the subways busy, Iâm at a dead end road
So I went right out and lived right up, I knew I not abide,
So I paid my dues and gave my mind
To a lack of unfortunate bide
Chorus:
So I grabbed my troubled heart, took my dreams on a train
Iâve got my ticket to New York, and Iâm going to run away
And if you try and hold me back, Iâll come and prove you wrong
You know, the city donât seem so bad if itâs where youâve been all along
Verse 2:
I want to go and live my life, but I knew Iâd seen no sign,
The days lost light, the clocks lost time, and the lonely lost their minds,
And you have never lost your mind, a hope or dream of friend,
But it brings right out these old, used thoughts, that you donât understand
Chorus:
Verse 3:
I know they say you canât buy love, but what had I to pay?
A time, a start, or an end could take me far away.
They say that you think differently, they say it like itâs bad,
But this whole time, you wish theyâd see exactly what you had
Final Chorus
So I grabbed my troubled heart, took my dreams on a train
Iâve got my ticket to New York, and now Iâm far away,
And if you come and join me, Iâd let you tag along,
Being lonely donât seem so bad, when itâs loneliness in song
