Steel Rails

Steel Rails, chasing sunshine 'round the bend
Winding through the trees like a ribbon in the wind
I dont mind not knowing what lies down the track
Cause Im looking out ahead to keep my mind from turning back

Its not the first time, I find myself alone at dawn
If I really had you once then I'd still have you when I'm gone
Whistle blowing, blowing lonesome in my mind
Calling me along that never ending double line

Steel Rails, chasing sunshine 'round the bend
Winding through the trees like a ribbon in the wind
I dont mind not knowing what lies down the track
Cause Im looking out ahead to keep my mind from turning back

The sun is shining through the open boxcar door
Lying in my mind with the things Ive known before
And Ive lost count of all the hours and days and time
Just the rhythm of the rails keeps the motion in my mind

Steel Rails, chasing sunshine 'round the bend
Winding through the trees like a ribbon in the wind
I dont mind not knowing what lies down the track
Cause Im looking out ahead to keep my mind from turning back

Cause Im looking out ahead to keep my mind from turning back
