On a train, heading east of here
Where I'll end up, I'm not quite clear
But I can't help myself, I must be settling down
Until they stop this thing, I'll get around
When I hear it's been done before
And I hear it's a simple thing
Then I hear it's quite difficult
And I hear almost everything
Pass through deserts with mountain streams
Outside my window, the scene's serene
The day I find myself I'll be so very proud
And I will not get passed up in the crowd
When I hear it's been done before
And I hear it's a simple thing
Then I hear it's quite difficult
And I hear
Now I'm not trying to cut anyone down
But I know it's been going on too long
Simply doing what you feel
Is the best way not to go wrong
But I know it seems crazy
And it might be a struggle
But I can't believe all this is true
So I'm here, I'm uneasy, and I'm ready to go
And I won't stop until this thing goes round and round
And I can sing like I will never know
When I hear it's been done before
And I hear it's a simple thing
Then I hear it's quite difficult
And I hear
When I hear it's been done before
And I hear it's a simple thing
Then I hear it's quite difficult
And I hear almost everything
