That sad old train. Sleepin' on an old rusty track. She was from another time. Gone with the wind like the smoke from that old stack. . She brought smiles and wavin' hands.
Up before the sunrise. It's a rocky road back home. The dust won't be near settled. As where we just come from. . I'll keep my promise to you. Just like I said I would.

Lyin' on our backs. we've stared at the stars. tryin' to count them. or guess how far. I still remember. the way that it felt. the night we hung our dreams out on O'Rien's belt.
