Lyrics Same Train - Elaine Paige (Featuring Christopher Cross)

Her day begins just like the others
The mirror tells her she's not getting any younger
For every dream that's failed her
For every wish that sailed away
She's still the same

He stands too long beneath the shower
The days are gone since he believed he had the power
To take a stand for something
To have a hand in his own life
What's wrong or right

He rides the same train everyday
No one seems to notice
He wears the same look on his face
And his spirit is broken
Trying hard to understand
Why some things never turn out like you plan
He rides the same train everyday

She sips her coffee as the rain falls
And thinks it's curious all prisons don't have four walls
Inside there's still a longing
It feels so wrong that he's so alone
All alone

She rides the same train everyday
No one seems to notice
She wears the same look on her face
And her spirit is broken
Trying hard to understand
Why some things never turn out like you plan
She rides the same train everyday

And today all that it might take is just a glance
A chance to see yourself inside a stronger's eyes
To know there's someone who
Feels like you
They ride the same train everyday
Maybe they might notice
A simple smile might pave the way
For two hearts that are open
It's not hard to understand
Why some things trun out just the way you plan
They ride the same train everyday
They ride the same train everyday
