Lyrics:
I’m at the station
Waiting for my train
Just like it’s been
Since ‘79
Then you come along
with another plan altogether
Deep in your eyes
My future resides
‘Til the whistle sounds on the turnstile
So are we gonna board this train together?
I woke up this morning
And looked at the beautiful land
Dressed to the nines
Put the world in the palm of my hand
Go to work, come home
Make dinner for the love of my life
Can I be a kingpin
and good loving mother and wife?
don’t want to pretend
I don’t want to succeed
but nothing’s black and white
about what I need
I’m at the station
Waiting for my train
Just like it’s been
Since ‘79
Then you come along
with another plan altogether
Deep in your eyes
My future resides
‘Til the whistle sounds on the turnstile
So are we gonna board this train together?
I walk down the street
Babies cooing at my feet
Loving every minute
Of every struggle that they meet
I talk to the lawyers
and nurses and artists too
Why must we separate
Who we are from what we do?
don’t want to make do with the status quo
can’t do better with all that we know?
I’m at the station
Waiting for my train
Just like it’s been
Since ‘79
Then you come along
with another plan altogether
Deep in your eyes
My future resides
‘Til the whistle sounds on the turnstile
So are we gonna board this train together?
It’s a fact, a matter of fact,
it’s a balancing act (ooh, ooh, ooh)
It’s a fact, a matter of fact,
it’s a balancing act (ooh, ooh, ooh)
It’s a fact, a matter of fact,
it’s a balancing act (ooh, ooh, ooh)
It’s a fact, a matter of fact,
it’s a balancing act (ooh, ooh, ooh)
