[Verse 1]
Sometimes it seems like the journey starts from the inside, fadin' out
You're on the road that's takin' you to the end to be turned around
And all the time you're feelin' up, well, gravity pulls you down
I know it must, 'cause all your smiles come out as bein' smiles
[Chorus]
But time keeps on rollin'
Like a train, goin' down the line
[Instrumental Break]
[Verse 2]
Well, there are few words to explain it, even those words I don't know
Warm hearts only could help the hands left outside in the cold
And all the so-called riches that are left there for the taking
Can't get my feet back on the path, I must have been mistaken
[Chorus]
As time, did it just keep rollin'?
Well, then take it on down the line
[Instrumental Break]
[Verse 3]
Well, I started on the journey looking for a little shelter
And I found that there was no place that I had liked better
Than the cold that had left my feet numb, so many times before
And the turnout seemed to be what I had set myself up for
[Chorus]
But what about time, is it still rollin'?
Now let it pass by, oh-ho
[Instrumental Break]
[Outro]
And I'd run back there tomorrow, if I thought it'd be the last time
Say, I'd run back there tomorrow, if I thought it'd be the last time
