Think of a time when livin’ was so much simpler, think of a time when you could catch your breath / Think of yourself and then try to help another, think of yourself as your own best friend / Think of a time when the rails determined your direction, think of a time when you didn’t have a care / Think of yourself as someone you admire, think of yourself as someone who’s burnin’ like a flare / ‘Cause you’re goin’ like a freight train, rollin’ down a one way track / Once you’re gone it’s forever, it’s just a fact, you can’t come back / Think of a time when loved ones talked to one another, think of a time before there was TV / Think of yourself as a silver pocket watch that’s ticking, think of yourself as someone who’s very much like me / ‘Cause you’re goin’ like a freight train, rollin’ down a one way track / Once you’re gone it’s forever, it’s just a fact, you can’t come back / Think of a time that’s ten thousand years in the future, think of a time when the blood was flowin’ through your veins / Think of yourself as someone who helped to make it better, think of yourself as someone who didn’t waste a day / ‘Cause you’re goin’ like a freight train, rollin’ down a one way track / Once you’re gone it’s forever, it’s just a fact, you can’t come back
