Last Train
Tiësto/Firebeatz/Ladyhawke Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

You were on the way to changing all I know, oh oh
You and all the stars are making my heart glow, oh oh
Send me in tonight and free my heart and soul, oh oh, oh oh
Tried to stay awake to see the first eyed break, eh eh ey ey
This is all I ever could need to make the most of it
Falling into everything, holding onto one another
Trying to get along in this world full of inconsequence
Falling into everything, holding onto one another

You're on the last train home again
The last train home again
This is the last song played in vain
The last song played in vain

You're on the last train home again
The last train home again
This is the last song played in vain
The last song played in vain

Waiting for a sign to lead me down your road, oh oh
Walking through the Ages wondering where to go, oh oh
Think of all the words you whispered when we woke, oh oh, oh oh
Light up all the sky and know my warm embrace, eh eh, ey ey
This is all I ever could need to make the most of it
Falling into everything, holding onto one another
Trying to get along in this world full of inconsequence
Falling into everything, holding onto one another

You're on the last train home again
The last train home again
This is the last song played in vain
The last song played in vain

You're on the last train home again
The last train home again




This is the last song played in vain
The last song played in vain

This song (and many of Tiësto's songs) have helped me get through some really dark, rough patches in life. Could listen to this over and over again.

This song is the song that made me year, it brought me smiles, it brought me tears, it brought my realisation, it brought me emotion. I never understood the song fully until I realised that the actions in this video are so similar to things I have done others so many times without even a thought. And realised that sometimes it just takes one kind moment, to pass it on to another, if only everyone was so beautiful and so caring the world would be a better place. Tiesto's latest album is the BEST dance album I have ever heard and it is all I listen to over and over and over every day and never tire of it one bit. Tiesto you make the most amazing music my ears have ever listened to, so upbeat, but not only that so POSITIVE because reality is that we live in a world surrounded by negativity in our media, our radios, our magazines and everywhere we go.... we need people like you to keep you going. I could listen to this song on repeat all day long and never tire of it. Such talent and so cleverly constructed video. LOVE IT!!!

Pocas veces me pasó que me concentré tanto en lo que pasaba en el video que no le presté atención al ritmo de la canción, si estaba buena o no. Buenísimo el video.

@adammolot

Этого так не хватает в реальной жизни!
Ощущение такое, что и ЭТА жизнь не реальная!
