Sunset on the river Down in the old watertown Hear the train whistle blowin' Oh, I'm right there now I was just a young boy Going nowhere soon With a dream and a beat-up six-string You're just howling at the moon Oh, I'm right there now Rise above the darkness Sail above the clouds Faith keep me from falling And I swear I won't look down Oh, I'm right there now At seventeen, the town was changing Factories were shutting down But we were rock and roll stars To all the watered-down bars And teenage brides in wedding gowns Oh, I'm right there now Rise above the darkness Sail above the clouds Faith keep me from falling And I swear I won't look down Oh, I'm right there now And way down the wind As I walk the road again Only time is lost I can still remember Driving home in the driving rain Past highway signs and Rock Island lines California dreamin' Oh, I'm right there now Rise above the darkness Sail above the clouds Faith keep me from falling And I swear I won't look down Oh, I'm right there now
