Train to Eternity

[Verse 1]
I left the station many years ago
Excited for what lay ahead
She stayed behind so many miles, although
I close my eyes and there she is

[Verse 2]
These wheels roll on from track to track
I ride across the land
Every mile brings me closer
The final stop is glory

[Chorus]
On this train to eternity
I'll ride this train to eternity
And all the way down

[Verse 3]
People get on and they get off
Sometimes we become friends
But they cannot stay, for in the end
Our destinations aren't the same

[Verse 4]
Others try to ride along
But find they cannot pay the fare
Sometimes we pull into a station
But if you get off, you're nowhere

[Chorus]
On this train to eternity
I'll ride this train to eternity
And all the way down

[Bridge]
Long ago I got my ticket
Never to be a slave
And I go the direction that I want
From greatness to the grave

[Chorus]
On this train to eternity
I'll ride this train to eternity
And all the way down
