Lyrics

[00:05.06] Have you called before your time?
[00:07.07] Rest your head against me I'm a friend to travelers.
[00:13.15]
[00:15.53] me Hold tight my wings are strong,
[00:17.35] Wrap your arms around me
[00:18.67] It's a long way through the tunnel to the light.
[00:26.38]
[00:30.05] Speeding through the fields of flowers,
[00:32.09] Silver skies with distant showers
[00:34.08] My sister brought them
[00:38.33]
[00:40.69] All the seeds in spring were sown,
[00:42.67] How the tendriled vines have grown
[00:44.55] So full in Autumn
[00:48.81]
[00:51.18] May I say you seem too strong,
[00:53.11] Loose your silver hair
[00:54.74] 'Cause it's a long way through the tunnel to the light.
[01:02.01]
[01:28.96] are Fates poised above the strings,
[01:30.71] They know the span of life and wings,
[01:32.75] You are not of them.
[01:37.17]
[01:39.23] See the life these travelers chose
[01:41.36] Highway lamps on open roads
[01:43.28] That shine above them
[01:47.47]
[01:49.93] Do your fingers want to feel
[01:51.87] Tunnels made of dampened steel
[01:53.81] And why pretend that you're so dull
[01:56.08] May I say you're beautiful
[01:57.89] It makes me want to turn this thing around,
[02:00.57] You'll ride with me tonight,
[02:02.32] You will ride with me tonight,
[02:04.38] You will ride with me tonight.
[02:07.92]
[02:08.61]
