Whether forever, or never again
I see you gone
And now, I just want to be there with you,
Foreverâ¦
Oh, how your eyes fell into mine
And we stirred to find the world alive
Like we couldnât feel the declineâ¦
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 trenchesâ reddened snow,
So maybe Hell ainât a place
Itâs a time, a time, a time when things move on
Ainât it a cryinâ shame, that after all this we lived to see it gone
Pieces in my hands
Tryân to put âem 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 canât put a fallen leaf back on the treeâ¦
Oh, say canât you see,
That theyâve taken you from me
All I wanted was to be there with you forever.
