[Verse] I caught a glimpse of her in the morning light Her suitcase packed She was ready for flight With a smile that said she knew where she'd go A runaway train Off the tracks in my soul [Chorus] She’s gone She’s gone No stopping her now She’s riding the rails She’s breaking her vow She’s gone She’s gone No turning around A runaway train and I’m losing ground [Verse 2] The station was empty Her echo remained A whisper of freedom A heart unchained I chased the wind but it slipped through my hand She’s a ghost on the tracks I can’t understand [Prechorus] I called her name The night called back A fading echo A lonesome track [Chorus] She’s gone She’s gone No stopping her now She’s riding the rails She’s breaking her vow She’s gone She’s gone No turning around A runaway train and I’m losing ground [Bridge] Did she find what she wanted A life in disguise Or is she searching for something she can’t recognize The stars overhead They don’t answer my cries Just the hum of the wheels and the darkening skies
