Jack Johnson - In Between Dreams (2005) - Breakdown lyrics

  • I hope this old train breaks down
    then I could take a walk around
    and, see what there is to see
    and time is just a melody
    all the people in the street
    walk as fast as their feet can take them
    I just roam through town
    And though my windows got a view
    The frame im looking through
    seems to have no concern for me now
    so for now

    I need this here
    old train to breakdown
    oh please just
    let me please breakdown

    This engine screams out loud
    Sayin the beat gunna crawl westbound
    so I dont even make a sound
    cause its gunna sting me when I leave this town
    All the people in the street
    that i'll never get to meet
    if these dont bend somehow
    and I got no time
    that I got to get to
    where I dont need to be
    So I

    I need this here
    old train to breakdown
    oh please just
    let me please breakdown
    I need this here
    old train to breakdown
    oh please just
    let me please breakdown
    I wanna break on down
    but I cant stop now
    let me break on down

    But you cant stop nothing
    if you got no control
    of the thoughts in your mind
    that you kept in, you know
    you dont know nothing
    but you dont need to know
    the wisdoms in the trees
    not the glass windows
    You cant stop wishing
    If you dont let go
    But things that you find
    and you lose, and you know
    you keep on rolling
    put the moment on hold
    the frames too bright
    so put the blinds down low

    I need this here
    old train to breakdown
    oh please just
    let me please breakdown
    I need this here
    old train to breakdown
    oh please just
    let me please breakdown
    I wanna break on down
    but I cant stop now
