Old 97's – Please Hold On While The Train Is Moving lyrics

Please hold on while the train is moving
Oh well, you better hold tight 'cause it's really moving
And though it's night, it's hot
And the fingertips know what the brain does not
Please hold on while the train is moving

Please hold on 'cause the train is slowing
Picking up souls who don't know they're going
We are one mind
You know we cannot help but it's the way we decide
You don't wanna let go when the train is moving

Yeah, you tell me that you don't but I know that you love me
I'm coming down fast so you better believe me
And I stink then I sweat
And you'll find out if you have not yet

We have now, we are one
Set the controls for the heart of the sun
Yeah, you never going home once the train is moving

I been dead on my bed since Sunday
I been rolling around on the runway
And I'm wondering if this thing is gonna fly

I'm gonna take it to the United Nations
Or to a rock'n'roll radio station
And I know you're never gonna leave me for another guy

I'm on my way
I'm on my way
I'm on my way

You know I'm flying out over the ocean
You know a body's gotta stay in motion
But I'm holding you now and I'm never gonna let you go

I been dead on my bed since Sunday
I been rolling around on the runway
And I want you now and I wanted to let you know

I'm on my way
I'm on my way
I'm on my way

Yeah, I'm a little bit afraid that we're out of control now
There's a turn ahead and I think we might roll now
Is it time, it may be
Though it seems a little early to me

Say a prayer to your god
And it's gonna even out to the weak in the heart
Please hold on while the train is moving
I said please hold on while the train is moving
Please hold on while the train is moving

I'm on my way
I'm on my way
I'm on my way
