Another Train

Micah sent me this song, and I thought it was super encouraging for some of us old timers that feel like we're washed up, and have given our best, and wasted our lives in many ways. He said it was really a boost for him, and I thought I would share it with you all and maybe it'll speak to you, too. It's good to look on the bright side and not get too wrapped up in our past, but look forward to a future that holds many more adventures and surprises for us all.

ANOTHER TRAIN ..........by Pete Morton

THE BEGINNING IS NOW AND WILL ALWAYS BE,
YOU SAY YOU LOST YOUR CHANCE AND THAT FATE BROUGHT YOU DEFEAT,
BUT THAT MEANS NOTHING, YOU LOOK SO SAD,
YOU'VE BEEN LISTENING TO THOSE WHO SAY YOU MISSED YOUR CHANCE.

CHORUS: THERE'S ANOTHER TRAIN, THERE ALWAYS IS,
MAYBE THE NEXT ONE IS YOURS, GET UP AND CLIMB ABOARD
ANOTHER TRAIN.


YOU MAY FEEL YOU'RE DONE, BUT THERE'S NO SUCH THING,
THOUGH YOU'RE STANDING ON YOUR OWN,
YOUR OWN BREATH IS KING,
THE BEGINNING IS NOW, DON'T TURN AROUND,
FOR REGRETS OF BAD MISTAKES WILL ONLY DRAIN YOU.

CHORUS. THERE'S ANOTHER TRAIN, THERE ALWAYS IS,
MAYBE THE NEXT ONE IS YOURS, GET UP AND CLIMB ABOARD
ANOTHER TRAIN.

WE CRAWL IN THE DARK SOMETIMES AND THINK TOO MUCH,
FILL OUR HEADS WITH CRAZY THINGS THAT ONLY BREAK OUR HEARTS,
I KNOW YOU'VE SEEN WHAT THIS EARTH CAN DO,
WHEN ITS DRAGGING DOWN ANOTHER LOAD OF US, US WORRISOME FOOLS.

CHORUS: THERE'S ANOTHER TRAIN, THERE ALWAYS IS,
MAYBE THE NEXT ONE IS YOURS, GET UP AND CLIMB ABOARD
ANOTHER TRAIN.

I KNOW ITS HARD, WE CAN FEEL CONFUSED
CROWN OURSELVES WITH IT ALL 'TILL WE FEEL WE CANNOT MOVE,
BUILDING WORLDS THAT DON'T EXIST
IMAGINATION PLAYS THE WORSE TRICKS.

CHORUS: THERE'S ANOTHER TRAIN, THERE ALWAYS IS,
MAYBE THE NEXT ONE IS YOURS, GET UP AND CLIMB ABOARD
ANOTHER TRAIN.
