[Verse 1]
When I jumped off, I had a bucket full of thoughts
When I first jumped off I held that bucket in my hand
Ideas that would take me all around the world
I stood and watched the smoke behind the mountain curl

[Hook]
It took me a long time to get back on the train

[Verse 2]
Now I’m gone and I’ll never look back again
I’m gone and I’ll never look back at all
You know I’ll never look back again
I turn my face into the howling wind

[Hook]
It took me a long time to get back on the train

[Guitar Solo]

[Verse 3]
See my face in the town that’s flashing by
See me standing in the station in the rain
See me running there beside the car
I left it all behind me and I’ve traveled far
[Hook]
It took me a long time to get back on the train

[Verse 1]
When I jumped off, I had a bucket full of thoughts
When I first jumped off I held that bucket in my hand
Ideas that would take me all around the world
I stood and watched the smoke behind the mountain curl

[Hook]
It took me a long time to get back on the train
It took me a long time to get back on the train
It took me a long time to get back on the train
