Track Insight / Lyrics
Dust motes dancin' in the mornin' light
Coffee brewin', holdin' back the night
Old wood creakin', stories in the grain
Saratoga callin', washin' off the rain
Black-eyed Susans line the track today
Ghosts of horses runnin' far away
Mineral water bubbles, cool and clear
Whispers of the winners, year after year
Saratoga steam, risin' to the sky
Where fortunes change and dreams don't die
A little bit of magic, a little bit of grace
Lost in time in this beautiful place
Used to be a grandstand, painted bright
Filled with laughter, bathed in golden light
Now just echoes linger, soft and low
Of silk and satin, a long, long ago
Saratoga steam, risin' to the sky
Where fortunes change and dreams don't die
A little bit of magic, a little bit of grace
Lost in time in this beautiful place
Old man Heminway, sittin' by the rail
Watchin' the horses, tellin' a sad tale
Lost his shirt and pride on a chestnut mare
But he'd be back tomorrow, breathin' in the air
Saratoga steam, risin' to the sky
Where fortunes change and dreams don't die
A little bit of magic, a little bit of grace
Lost in time in this beautiful place
They say the springs can heal a weary soul
Wash away the troubles, make a person whole
But the real cure's the rhythm of the race
And the friendly faces in this special place
Saratoga steam, risin' to the sky
Where fortunes change and dreams don't die
A little bit of magic, a little bit of grace
Lost in time in this beautiful place
Saratoga steam, risin' to the sky!
Where fortunes change and dreams don't die!
A little bit of magic, a little bit of grace
Lost in time in this beautiful place!
Steam still risin', soft and low
Saratoga dreamin', watchin' the waters flow
Another day is done, the sun sinks down
In this historic, hallowed ground.
