Ain't no stoppin' this thing he's chasin'
Ain't no stoppin' this runaway train he's on
He's wishin' his wishes and missin' his station
It's there one minute and the next it's gone, gone, gone
Keeps on bettin' on winnin' this race
Don't see it lookin' him in his face

He's already there
He's already made it
He's already stolen the show
Just don't know

There ain't no stoppin' this roller coaster
There ain't no jumpin' this merry-go-round, she rides
You won't see this girl smellin' these roses
You won't catch this girl showin' this thorn she hides
A love bound mother and a dutiful wife, yeah
[Incomprehensible] too much livin' and not enough life, yeah

She's already there
She's already made it
She's already stolen the show
She just don't know
[Incomprehensible]

And it'll never be right unless one of them sees, yeah
The proverbial wood from the proverbial trees

They're already there
They've already made it
They've already stolen the show
Just don't know
Just don't know

It's on the tip of my tongue
It's there and then it's gone
It's comin' around again
It's just around this bend
It's over the horizon
It's right before my eyes
It's right beneath my feet, my feet

There ain't no stoppin' this thing we're chasin'
There ain't no stoppin' this runaway train we're on
