lyrics

There’s a train that goes into the city
It’s a train that is leaving today
It gets into the station at seven
And it’s coming to take me away

I need time now to figure some stuff out
And to get my adult life on track
So i packed up my oversized suitcase
And I don’t know when I’m coming back

So I’m sorry if you think that’s selfish
And I’m sorry if you can’t forgive
But for once in my life
I am choosing what life I will live
So it’s time now for me to be selfish
And it’s time now for me to stand tall
Cause until I do so I won’t ever know
Where my life is going at all

Yes of course I would like to find true love
Have a kid and a pink house someday
Meet the love of my life while in high school
And play out that movie cliche
But I’m lost and I don’t know the right path
And there’s so much I still want to do
I’m just not where you are in my life yet
And that just isn’t fair to you

So its fine now and then to be selfish
When it comes to the things that we lack
We need time to explore something more is just right around track
So it’s time now for me to be selfish
Yes its time now for me to stand tall
Cause until we’re both free
We won’t ever see
If this really was true love at all

And perhaps this new plan has no cosmic significance
Perhaps there’s no preassigned fate
I think we both know we need time to grow
On our own before it is too late

So its time now for me to be selfish
I’m sorry but it’s what I must do
And this must be a sign
Being selfish is fine for you too
Yes its time now for you to be selfish
Yes its time now for you to stand tall
Cause until you do so
You won’t ever know where your life is going at all
