Whether forever, or never again I see you gone And now, I just want to be there with you, Forever…
Oh, how your eyes fell into mine And we stirred to find the world alive Like we couldn’t feel the decline…
Old railroad, take me away to that time When men held something close. The place where we touched the flame, We burned slowly before it All went up in smoke.
Smoke, stone, broken bones A hard place we called a home
[Chorus]
I saw with my own eyes us unraveling While others took to your side. Men of priviledge and class, They danced, they drank, they Robbed the whole place blind.
And drunk with Pride, you hurt, you stole But I still carried you home. From the jungles, to the deserts, to the trenches’ reddened snow,
So maybe Hell ain’t a place It’s a time, a time, a time when things move on Ain’t it a cryin’ shame, that after all this we lived to see it gone
Pieces in my hands Try’n to put ‘em back Just the way they were before
How we tamed earth and broke rock just to bring us close 20,000 miles of steel across the great unknown You can’t put a fallen leaf back on the tree…
Oh, say can’t you see, That they’ve taken you from me
All I wanted was to be there with you forever.Teksty umieszczone na naszej stronie są własnością wytwórni, wykonawców, osób mających do nich prawa.
