Story Behind The Song
This song might be about a long lost female lover or about returning to God after many years. I'm still not sure myself. The lyrics express the restlessnees I often feel in life, hoping that true happiness will be found around the next corner. In my case, I already have true happiness in the love of God and my family, but often try to find it somewhere else to no avail.

Lyrics
Riding on a train, bound for nowhere
Just a stranger lost in time, on my way
Searching for a place I still remember
Though I?ve long forgot the names and the faces
(Pre-Chorus)
It seems I?ve ridden these tracks from end to end
And the answer always seems to be just around the bend
(Chorus)
I?m trying to find my way home
To the place that I belong
To a love that once was strong enough to hold me
I don?t know if I?ll find a little peace in my mind
But I?ll search ?til I die for your love
Every time I tried to live without you
It seemed my plans just fell apart in my hands
I guess I?d thought I?d find a peace in knowing
I had made it on my own, but I?m empty
(Pre-Chorus)
(Chorus)
(Break)
Memories come and go
But I still remember you
I know I have a place in your heart
And though I ran away
I am coming home to stay
I?ll meet you at the end of this train
(Lead)
(Chorus)
