The darkest day of the year
And my heart is on the rail
The darkest day of the year
And whose hand is at the wheel
Whose hand's at the wheel
Who will tell 'em what has happened
Out here beyond the dawn
Out here beyond the horizon
Who will tell 'em that you're gone
Oh, the breaking sigh
No answer in the mystery
Once you held me helpless
Once it mighta been
Cold was sharp across the high desert
You and me in the secrets
Once it must have been
Not only my heart on the rail
Once it must have been
No hand was at the wheel
That no hand was at the wheel
