Lovin' you is like ridin' on a one way track
I can love you now, but I can't come back
I sit here thinkin' and I get so blue
I need that girl beside me with a love so true
I love you now, but tomorrow's gonna come
And that one way track to know that you're the only one

I need you lovin' arms around me, baby hold me tight
I want you with me, need your lovin', want you through the night
The sun behind the mountain means that we must part
I'll never get your memory out from my heart
The train breathin' fire, puffin' smoke from the stack
But all I do is count the minutes lookin' at the track

The time has come and the train must leave
I know it's true, but my heart won't believe
By baby's stayin', but I gotta go
I'll think of her forever and I'll miss her so
I'll get my things, then I gotta pack
And I know that I'm ridin' on a one way track

Lovin' you is like ridin' on a one way track
I can love you now, but I can't come back
I sit here thinkin' and I get so blue
I need that girl beside me with a love so true
I love you now, but tomorrow's gonna come
And that one way track to know that you're the only one
