I could see it coming from a mile away
A heartache lookinfor a place to stay
But i couldnt resist her and i couldnt be cool
Lord can't a woman make a man a fool

Its an age-old story but it still holds true
There ain't no end to what a man won't do
Hell love some woman til he goes insane
Its a short sweet ride on a runaway train

I was drunk and crazy from her sweet perfume
But i knew stone sober i was being used
Now the heartache lingers like a cheap cologne
She took all she wanted then she was gone

Chorus

It was almost worth if for the time we spent
But there ain't no future in a heart for rent
Still she taught me something bout the facts of life
Love cuts quicker than a switchblade knife

Chorus

Its a short sweet ride on a runaway train
