Runnin’ burnin’

And a lonely whistle blows

In the night in the night

There’s a border moon a risin’

I can hear that white freight line

Lyin’ cryin’

Like an earth bound eagle yearnin’

In the night in the night

Wanna leave the tears that bind me

On a rusty railroad sign

Chorus

I’ve been hearin’ stories

I’ve been sitting scared

By the moon denying

I could ever dare

Board a broken angel

On a one way track

Faster than the devil trailin’

Tryin’ to take me back

Take it make it

All along the freedom flight

In the night in the night

No more lyin’ dreamin’

Cryin’ wishin’

I had wings to fly
