Jump the Next Train
Young Parisians Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Either way it's suicide
Cars drive through in real time
You choose the stars in blue and white
I love you till i'm dead inside
Plastic eyes look milky white
And the violence makes things hard to hide
Our pale faces sink in time
Either way it's suicide

I'm gonna jump the next train
Gonna jump on a plane
Take a ticket to the other side
Jump the next train (X2)

I'm gonna jump the next train
Gonna jump on a plane
Take a ticket to the other side
Jump the next train (X2)

I'm gonna jump the next train
Gonna jump on a plane
Take a ticket to the other side
Jump the next train (X2)

Jump the next train...

Touch till hot times smack me up
And cigarettes taste good tonight
Modern girl it's time to go
Either way i'll let you know
We wake up to a polaroid
And the blank eyes stare at something new
Little unit don't let go
All I really want is you

I'm gonna jump the next train
Gonna jump on a plane
Take a ticket to the other side
Jump the next train (X2)

I'm gonna jump the next train
Gonna jump on a plane
Take a ticket to the other side
Jump the next train (X2)

I'm gonna jump the next train
Gonna jump on a plane
Take a ticket to the other side
Jump the next train (X2)

I'm gonna jump the next train
Gonna jump on a plane




Take a ticket to the other side
Jump the next train (X2

Hold on tight, no matter what may come.

Classic trance track beloved by so many around the world, even 60-yr old former disco queens like me. First heard this on Paul Oakenfold’s Creamfields CD way back in... wait for it ... 2004! Amazing and timeless!

@Wag1blad

I’m trying to think of when I first heard this I’m only 32 but my trance music knowledge goes back to the 90s when my 25yr old cousin lent me all of her Ministry of Sound and Ibiza mixes on cd when I was only like 9 or 10 😂 it’s a shame a lot of those djs who were big when I was in high school aren’t making much music now.

Thanks for having this posted. This tune randomly popped into my head and I believe it's been over a decade since I last heard it.
