My favorite song

Stop This Train by John Mayer

No I'm not color blind
I know the world is black and white
Try to keep an open mind but...
I just can't sleep on this tonight
Stop this train I want to get off and go home again
I can't take the speed it's moving in
I know I can't
But honestly won't someone stop this train

Don't know how else to say it, don't want to see my parents go
One generation's length away
From fighting life out on my own

Stop this train
I want to get off and go home again
I can't take the speed it's moving in
I know I can't but honestly won't someone stop this train

So scared of getting older
I'm only good at being young
So I play the numbers game to find away to say that life has just begun
Had a talk with my old man
Said help me understand
He said turn 68, you'll renegotiate
Don't stop this train
Don't for a minute change the place you're in
Don't think I couldn't ever understand
I tried my hand
John, honestly we'll never stop this train

See once in a while when it's good
It'll feel like it should
And they're all still around
And you're still safe and sound
And you don't miss a thing
'til you cry when you're driving away in the dark.

Singing stop this train I want to get off and go home again
I can't take this speed it's moving in
I know I can't
Cause now I see I'll never stop this train

The Rhythm of "Stop This Train" is really mellow, like most of John Mayer's songs. His gentle mainstream guitar playing always adds to the overall tone of his songs because majority of them seem to be mixed with some of the blues. This song is about embracing the life you live by loving every moment.The way John Mayer plays starts out really relaxing and gentle, then once he realizes in the song that he "doesn't want to start the train" the song gets alittle more upbeat showing his excitment for life. This song is one of my favorites simply because of the rhythm. If I've had a stressful day this song never fails to relax me and is able to put me in a more positive mood. Pretty much all of John Mayer's songs are able to do this because of the fact that he follows more of an acoustic, mellow tone throughout majority of his songs. It's also the best bedtime music! So relaxing! He plays the kind of music that you'd listen to while you cuddle up next to the fire on a rainy day.
