Transit

Under a pearly string of light

It comes to a stop

Miles and miles between here and there

The road runs cross the asphalt and gets wet

When someone spills in the sky

Life is short

But a long, long ride

My guitar sheds a tear

For tons of load in transit

Never mind where here is

Looks shut but never closes

We go in

And then we're out again

Bold and restless across the land

Sunglasses and windshieldwipers

Whips us on

Life is short

Time is lost and we are gone

Days are short but the nights go on

Home is home, gone is gone

Funny smiles on dried up lips

Mach 4 going down hill

Quick turn and pitch black tunnel

Life is short

But a long, long ride

My guitar sheds a tear

For tons of load in transit

For tons of load in transit

For tons of load in transit

For tons of load, tons of load, tons of load
