Lyrics

[Verse 1] When I look into your eyes Your drop-like-an-anchor eyes I scudded and clipped the sky Just shy of making it And you almost got away I told you I was afraid Did I really want to try? You're holding me to my claim [Chorus] I jump on a high speed train I'll never look back again I flail like the antelope Who jumped from the building [Verse 2] And you caught me on the sly You've taken me by surprise You've mirrored my best disguise and Turned it back on me [Chorus] I jump on a high speed train I'll never look back again I flail like the antelope Who jumped from the building [Chorus] I jump on a high speed train I'll never look back again To Berlin, Kyoto or Marseilles I'd go anywhere for you [Verse 3] I'll bring you a big bouquet I picked it myself today It compliments your eyes There's love at the end of the line [Chorus] I jump on a high speed train I'll never look back again I flail like the antelope Who jumped from the building [Chorus] I jump on a high speed train I'll never look back again To Berlin, Kyoto or Marseilles I'd go anywhere for you [Bridge] And that's what I always knew I'd like to have hung the moon I'd wrestle you for a spoon Inside your sleeping bag Just us [Outro] No war, no hate, no past It's real I'm here, I'm yours, I'm fast I'm long in the eye I'm cry when I try I just want to fly Just you and I, together
