Lyrics

Wrong Train

Something tells me I was never meant to reach the top
I've been the whole way down the track, right to the final stop
No-one denied I'd soon arrive at my eternal fame
I confidently stepped outside...
But I was on the wrong train

I might have been more famous than The Beatles or The Stones
When Elvis grew too large for life I coulda taken on the throne
I might have wooed Brigitte Bardot but destiny's to blame
I was almost there, my time had come...
But I was on the wrong train

I've travelled down the mountains to the valley of despair
Through the weirdest, wondrous places I just sat and stared
So you can scowl at fellow passengers and curse it all you like
Its taken me to hell and back, but now I'm lying here...
Right by your side

I might have landed on the moon in 1968
If things hadda gone the way I planned then Neil would've been too late
And I'm sitting here just sipping beer when it might have been champagne
But don't get me wrong, I'm feeling strong...
I'm happy to be riding on the wrong train
