red streamliner

red streamliner rollin'

rollin' down the track the things you see

with your wheels in motion through desert

mountain

ocean

i hear you every night

is it a dream?

red streamliner rollin' down

comin' down on me

red streamliner rollin'

rollin' long so free

your past keeps comin' back on me

to far and near

away from here

where people move a mile a minute

this hurricane livin' with you and me in it

long into the night

that whistle offers light

red streamliner rollin'

i wish you'd tell me 'bout the things you see

i'm lookin'

lookin' down the tracks you ride

knowin' that they're your only guide

i see them every night

is it a dream?

and when the sidewalks roll up at night

just as stations pass by

once the leader of the wild

wild west

hurricane livin' been a lifelong song

now you're cast of steel and cast aside

broken dreams maybe

but you haven't died
