Train


you may feel your feet are strong

if there ain’t a train that’ll take you home

you got to walk on the road


you may persevere the calm

but when the rain meets cloudy cold...

if there ain’t a train that’ll take you home

you got to walk on the road


until you’ve climbed every stair of the night

to the high light of dawn

until you’ve walked alone

weary... wondering where you belong

on a precipice... glazing the barren

the riverland gone

until you’ve climbed every stair of the night

to the high light of dawn


you may feel your feet are strong

but when the rain meets cloudy cold

you got to forge through the snow


you have found your way before

oriented by the stars

and you got a long, long way to go
