Somewhere Along the Line

Somewhere along the line, On the railroad called life, I had derailed my own train... Before reaching Happiness Station... Just as it loomed ahead, I chose another track instead... I guess I was insane, My actions on that train... Seemed to me at the time, The train was out of control... The powerful engine of love... From me, my self-identity, It had somehow stole From that point on, My travels were hard and full of pain, Seemed everyday I was greeted, With painful snow or rain... So don't fear success. This I beg you, Don't think love will make you weak... And grab hold of that great emotion You've nothing more important to seek, Even if you sailed through every mighty ocean.
