Lindsay is a huge John Mayer fan and has even re-recorded her own version of Mayer’s album, Continuum. This is her take on John’s tale of growing older and figuring it all out. Check out the original here!
[Verse 1]
No I'm not color blind
I know the world is black and white
Try to keep an open mind
But I just can't sleep on this tonight
[Chorus]
Stop this train
I wanna get off and go home again
I can't take the speed, it's moving in
I know I can't
But honestly, won't someone stop this train?
[Verse 2]
Don't know how else to say it
Don't want to see my parents go
One generation's length away
From fighting life out on my own
[Chorus]
Stop this train
I wanna get off and go home again
I can't take the speed, it's moving in
I know I can't
But honestly, won't someone stop this train?
[Verse 3]
So scared of getting older
I'm only good at being young
So I play the numbers game to
Find a way to say that life has just begun
Had a talk with my old man
Said, "Help me understand"
He said, "Turn 68
You'll renegotiate"
[Chorus]
Don't stop this train
Don't for a minute change the place you're in
And don't think I could ever understand
I tried my hand
John, honestly we'll never stop this train
[Bridge]
Once in a while, when it's good
It'll feel like it should
When you're all still around
And you're still safe and sound
And you don't miss a thing
'Til you cry when you're driving away in the dark
[Chorus]
Singing stop this train
I wanna get off and go home again
I can't take the speed it's moving in
I know, I can't
'Cause now I see I'll never stop this train
Stop This Train was written by John Mayer.
