You took a silver train all the way to Maine
|
On the way to everything
|
Railroad wings
|
|
There's things you don't know you know
|
I thought anger told me what to do
|
With emptiness chasing me
|
On the border, I found you
|
You should've heard her sing
|
Railroad wings
|
|
This emptiness has followed me like a cold blue sky
|
And it has not been easy for you
|
There's things I'll never tell you till the day I die
|
Things I've done I can never undo
|
Hiding everything
|
Railroad wings
|
|
All these years along, the lights are growing dim
|
I hear you sing your song in the next room
|
And as far as I can tell, most everything means nothing
|
Except some things that mean everything
|
Railroad wings
|
