Threw my love across the tracks,
Where my love ranged and your love lacked.
Time had sown those tender cracks,
Love lost raged on a small man trapped.
See my future, dreams that I told,
She's got new hair and all new clothes.
Saying no in your sweetest tune.
My life was free for you to mourn.
I took a plane and twenty trains,
One hundred million miles away.
In your grasp I was caught,
And knowing has captured me more.
See the red dust that I know,
With open arms she always welcomes me home.
But I am a creature and I'm roaming free,
Perhaps I brought you back here with me.
I took a plane and twenty trains,
One hundred million miles away.
In your grasp I was caught,
And knowing has captured me more.
In your grasp I was caught.
And knowing has captured me more.
