Track Insight / Lyrics
Steel tracks hum a lonely tune
Freight cars wait beneath the moon
Whispers drift on chilling breeze
Silent stories told with ease
The night shift knows his weary ways
Coffee stained, another day
He watches shadows twist and turn
Stories etched on walls he'll learn
Railroad dreams, lost in the mist
A sailor's heart, forever kissed
By salty waves and faded skies
Steel and mist, where truth and lies
His hands are rough, his eyes are deep
Haunted by the secrets he'll keep
A compass points to a distant shore
Memories lost, forevermore
Railroad dreams, lost in the mist
A sailor's heart, forever kissed
By salty waves and faded skies
Steel and mist, where truth and lies
The diesel sighs, a mournful call
The city sleeps beneath its thrall
The fog it rises, shrouds the scene
A sailor's heart, forever keen
He watches trains roll in and out
His world confined, his doubts
The endless tracks, a ribbon bright
Leading him through darkest night
The morning breaks, a pale gold hue
He knows his duty, knows what's true
Steel and mist, his constant guide
Through fading dreams, he'll abide
Railroad dreams, lost in the mist
A sailor's heart, forever kissed
By salty waves and faded skies
Steel and mist, where truth and lies
