I always wanted to be somebody
Back then I didn't know just who
Anything but ordinary
Another rebel without a clue
For a while, I was on a mission
To have it all, and to have it fast
Blinded by my own ambition
But now I see, it'll never last
I'm going on the slow train
Express or local, I'll get there the same
Going on the slow train
Enjoy the ride, that's my aim
Going on the slow train
Dim the lights, come a little closer
Let's start this off with a tender kiss
Savor each moment 'til it's over
Wanna make sure there ain't a breath I miss
Let's go on the slow train
Express or local, I'll get there the same
Going on the slow train
Enjoy the ride, that's my aim
Going on the slow train
I don't care about the destination
I don't care if it's a bumpy ride
If you rush, you'll pass my station
Gotta go local, honey, to get to satisfied
Let's go on the slow train
Express or local, I'll get there the same
Going on the slow train
Enjoy the ride, that's my aim
Going on the slow train
