DOWN THIS LINE

DOWN THIS LINE

WRITTEN BY JEFF R HILTON

CAUGHT THE TRAIN

JUST AS TWILIGHT HIT THE STAGE

ROLLING ACROSS THE PRAIRIE

PAST MOONLIT SAGE

HEADING WEST

A RUN BENEATH THE STARS

 EVERY MILE PUTS ME

CLOSER TO YOU

LOOKING OUT THE WINDOW

AT NOTHING I CAN SEE

YOU MAKE YOUR CHOICES

AND HOPE THEY SET YOU FREE

YOU WORK YOUR WAY

TO THE MIDDLE

YOU TAKE A LOOK AROUND

YOU WONDER IF THIS IS YOU

YOU MAKE UP YOUR MIND

TO SEE IT THROUGH

YOU KNOW IT WON'T BE EASY

BUT YOU'VE GOT TO TRY

YOU'VE COME SO FAR

TO THROW IT ALL AWAY

MAYBE TONIGHT

AS THE FAILING LIGHT

SLOWLY TURNS AWAY

FROM THE RAYS

 OF THE MORNING SUN 

ITS BETTER THAN IT EVER WAS

FURTHER DOWN THIS LINE

I KNOW SHE'S WAITING FOR ME

HER ARMS CROSSED

HER HOPES AS HIGH AS MINE

HER SOFT BLUE EYES

JUST MIGHT CRY

SHE'LL SHRUG IT OFF

SAY I KNOW WHY

HEAD ON MY SHOULDER

SHE'LL TAKE MY ARM

SHE'LL TELL ME I CAN'T GO

I NEED TO STAY ON

THOSE STEEL WHEELS

KEEP ON ROLLING

THE SKY IS TURNING BLUE

IS IT ME OR BOTH OF US

WITH HEARTS AS LIGHT AS SPIRIT

ANTICIPATING YOUR TOUCH

JUST TO BE WITH YOU

FEEL YOUR LOVE

RIGHT BESIDE ME

I CARE ENOUGH TO KNOW

THAT WE SHOULD GROW TOGETHER

MAYBE THIS IS IT

THE LAST TRAIN TO YOU

I SEE YOU WAITING

AT THE STATION

ALL PRETTY AND SWEET

JUST LIKE I'M DREAMING

YOU STAND BEFORE ME

YOUR EMBRACE REMINDS ME

THERE'S NO OTHER PLACE

I WANT TO BE
