Kenny Rogers & The First Edition - Ticket To Nowhere lyrics

rate me

Songwriter: Settle, Mike

The train is comin' at 6:05

And I'll be gettin' on it to take a long ride

Back to an apartment so empty inside

With loneliness the only thing that's waiting

I bought my ticket today

I just paid for one way

The price was too high for returning

I have spent all my love

Getting none in return

I bought a ticket to nowhere today

And I still hear her voice

As it rings in my brain

Telling me she's in love

Oh, yes, well, really

That she's been hurt before

That's what first love is for

But now she's found the kind of love

That she's been needing

She's standing there so shy

Feeling nothing inside

Not seeing the pain my eyes are trying to hide

For her, it was fun, but it's all said and done

No love left in the silence of goodbye

And I still hear her voice

As it rings in my brain

Telling me she's in love

Oh, yes, well, really

That she's been hurt before

That's what first love is for

But now she's found the kind of love

That she's been needing

I bought a ticket to nowhere today

I bought a ticket to nowhere today

I bought a ticket to nowhere today

I bought a ticket to nowhere today

I bought a ticket to nowhere today
