Wheels spin
On cold, hard track
Steam blows past the window
Where we go, nobody knows
Except for him
He's the Engineer
He built this train we stand on
It brings some to tears
But I know
At least I hope
Someone's up there
Loving us, watching us, counting our hair
The train only stops
If there's someone new
Or to let off someone
Who has passed to see the truth
I hope they don't decide
To jump off early
We didn't want to be on this express
But we're all here now and it's kind of a mess
But if we make it though just one more day
We may find our reason to stay
Please don't go
Don't leave me
Please don't go
Don't leave me
Please don't go
Don't leave me
Please don't go
Don't leave me
Please don't let me go
The train stops for no one
There are no second chances to regret what you've done
That's why I plead so
That's why I need you to know
That you're needed
I know you're bleeding
You might hate it for now
But I'm asking you
I know it's worth it
I know because I made it
We didn't want to be on this express
But we're all here now and it's kind of a mess
But if we make it though just one more day
We may find our reason to stay
Please don't go
Don't leave me
Please don't go
Don't leave me
Please don't go
Don't leave me
Please don't go
Don't leave me
Please don't let me go
I have nothing else to say
You throw my words away
I can't get through to you
Is there nothing I can do
I don't know how you feel
You're right, there's no way to
I can't satisfy your mind
It's all up to you
Please don't go
(Don't leave me)
Please don't go
(Don't leave me)
Please don't go
(Don't leave me)
Please don't go
(Don't leave me)
Please don't let me go
