Runaway Freight Train by Ray Wylie Hubbard Lyrics

[Verse 1]
There is a flower
Soft to touch
And quite like rain
It's quick to cry
It'll lie in tears
On a bed alone
Love is a flower
Born to die

[Verse 2]
There is a spark
In the darkest night
It heats up quick
When two hearts meet
If it burns too fast
Tears gonna fall
Love is a fire
It burns so sweet

[Chorus]
Our love is a runaway freight train
It's a bird that's never known a cage
With these wings we're gonna fly forever
Above these storm clouds [wild hearts rage?]
[Verse 3]
There is a fever
It runs deep in the blood
With a kiss
Melt a heart of stone
I just wanna look [/want love?]
And a sweet [hot?] touch
Love is a fever
Eats up the flesh and bone

[Chorus]
And our love is a runaway freight train
It's a bird that's never known a cage
With these wings we're gonna fly forever
Above these storm clouds [wild hearts rage?]
Above these storm clouds [wild hearts rage?]
Above these storm clouds [wild hearts rage?]
