From the recording Rails (Acoustic Mix)
Lyrics
I'll Ride these rails that have come untied
I'm heading for the highlands now in search of a better Life
I'll Take only memories, and these letters in my mind
Till at last I finally see you by the waters, and the yellow pine
The days are long, and th distance wide
But, I'll make it back to you my love even though other men have died
And, when we're old, and with our children gathered round
We'll tell them of the journey from the mountains to the hallowed ground
Shine your love light on my life
You make way for good dreams, and you make my heart feel light
The moonlight on the prairie is as soft as your touch
And, even in the darkness I reach out for your love
