One more detour now One more roadblock then the road looks clear So, let's take the train To the coast 'fore the rain gets here Hurricanes can't be seen At all where the airplanes fly So just box old prayers Unheard words when they know the lie Up late, down low, no sleep, nowhere to go Cold spell, no snow, two feet, nothing to show Six weeks, now past, and stand still, don't go too fast Sweet dreams, at last, cheap thrills, be cause I asked I can see the lights of the ship Can you see it, too? Don't you dare, too cross On a line what they say's not true Up late, down low, no sleep, no where to go Cold spell, no snow, two feet, nothing to show Six weeks, now past, and stand still, don't go too fast Sweet dreams, at last, cheap thrills, be cause I asked Its a shame you left Way back when all the roads were clear So, I'll take the train To the coast, but you won't be here
