After placing first in a singing competition I was awarded studio time with a producer. In this song I'm singing a cover of Stop This Train by John Mayer - one of my favorite songs to sing and play guitar to. The guitar was recorded by other musicians but the vocals are mine. I hope you enjoy - it has taken me six years to finally decide to release this.
Lyrics:
No, I'm not colorblind I know the world is black and white I try to keep an open mind But I just can't sleep on this tonight Stop this train I want to get off and go home again I can't take the speed it's moving in I know I can't But honestly, won't someone stop this train? Don't know how else to say it Don't want to see my parents go I'm one generation's length away From fighting life out on my own Stop this train I want to get off and go home again I can't take the speed it's moving in I know I can't But honestly, won't someone stop this train? I'm so scared of getting older I'm only good at being young So I play the numbers game To find a way to say my life has just begun Had a talk with my old man Said, "Help me understand" He said "Turn 68, oh, you'll re-negotiate" "Don't stop this train Don't for a minute change the place you're in And don't think I couldn't ever understand I tried my hand John, honestly we'll never stop this train" Once in a while, when it's good It'll feel like it should And they're all still around And you're still safe and sound And you don't miss a thing 'Til you cry When you're driving away in the dark Singing Stop this train I want to get off and go back home again I can't take the speed this thing moving in I know I can't 'Cause now I see, I'm never gonna stop this train
Stop This Train - John Mayer
