I chose a life of missed callings
And lost hopes
Of empty trains
Railway dreams
Losing fast
Gaining steam
I was born tonight down highway skies
When miles race under my head
I'll remember what you said
And I'll stay out till it's done for me
And my legacy will be one that keeps me pushing me away
So it's back to engines
Underfoot
And miles of great disdain
They never understand the way I walk
And you know it's the way I talk
That keep me from knowing when I should see
The things you're showing me
And it's you I want to do this to
And it's looks like that that'll make me stay with you
Keep your cool I'll be home soon
And know that it's you
It's you
It's you
I chose a life of missed callings And lost hopes Of empty trains Railway dreams Losing fast Gaining steam
I was born tonight down highway skies
When miles race under my head I'll remember what you said And I'll stay out till it's done for me And my legacy will be one that keeps me pushing me away So it's back to engines Underfoot And miles of great disdain
They never understand the way I walk And you know it's the way I talk That keep me from knowing when I should see The things you're showing me And it's you I want to do this to And it's looks like that that'll make me stay with you
Keep your cool I'll be home soon And know that it's you It's you It's you
