Runaway train on the railroad track
Never to return 'cause it's never coming back
I've got to get myself together... 'cause baby it's now or never

You can be on different stations yet take the same train
All I know is I'm never going back again
I've got to get myself together... baby it's now or never

And I feel it in my soul and I know I've got to let go
Of the old ways that are so outmoded
Like a time bomb that exploded... let it go

I've got my life packed in a big suitcase
But my mind is heading in a different place
I've got to get it all together... 'cause baby it's now or never

The truth is heavy like reinforced steel
Whatever you've lost, at least it makes you real
And I know it's over forever... 'cause baby you were so fair-weather

Feel it in your soul and know you've got to let go
Of the old ways that are so outmoded
Like a time bomb that exploded... let it go

I don't know why I'm holding out, 'cause it may have gone
I don't know what happened and why it all went wrong
I've got to get myself together, cause baby it's now or never

You can't run away... yeah
You can't run away... yeah
You can't run away... yeah
You can't run away... yeah
