Hit Me Like a Train — текст песни (Todd Rundgren)

I have visions, I have visions of a happy land

And in this happy land, happy land

There is still one unhappy man

Because of all the things he wants

There is always something he cant have

Its like a siren singing, like a church bell ringing

I can feel you winning, and my head starts spinning

Now Im back at the beginning

I, i, I see you lying there and

I, I felt a wave come over me and

I, i, I thought I had escaped you

As I sat down by the roadside

And it hit me like a train

Hit me like a freight train

When the truth came down on me

It hit me like a long, slow train



It is written, I know its written

All gods children get smitten

And if theres anyone, anybody

I know the [lord] can fit that description

And if I could turn back the hands of time

Still I wouldnt know what Im supposed to change

Its like a well gone dry, like a kiss goodbye

As the grip gets tighter, I continue to fight it

Then you strike me with your lightning

I, i, I woke up in a cold sweat and

I, I thought I heard you call my name and

I, i, I had to reach out for your fingers

And before I could call the doctor

You hit me like a train

Hit me like a freight train

When the truth came down on me

Swear you hit me like a long, slow train



Lord you hit me like a train

Hit me like a coal train

When your love came down on me yeah

Say hit me like a long, slow

Lord I feel it coming down and

I, i, i, i, oooh

I, i, i, oh lord have mercy [on me]

I cant hold out no longer

I was ready to surrender

And it hit me like a train yeah

Hit me like a freight train

When your love came down on me yeah

And it me like a long, slow train

Lord you hit me like a train

Hit me like a soul train

When your love, when your love came down on me child

Hit me like a long slow [how long was it] long train

Hit me like a coal train?
