"Railroad Wings" lyrics
"Railroad Wings"
You took a silver train
All the way to Maine
On the way to everything
Railroad wings
There's things you don't know you know
I thought anger had told me what to do
With emptiness chasing me
On the border I found you
You should've heard her sing
Railroad wings
This emptiness has followed me like a cold blue sky
And it has not been easy for you
There's things I'll never tell you till the day I die
Things I've done I can never undo
Hiding everything
Railroad wings
All these years along, the lights are growing dim
I hear you sing your song in the next room
And as far as I can tell, 'most everything means nothing
Except some things that mean everything
Railroad wings
Railroad wings
Railroad wings
Railroad wings
Railroad wings

Dar Williams - "Whispering Pines" If you find me in a gloom, or catch me in a dream
Inside my lonely room, there is no in between
Whispering pines, rising of the tide
If only one star shines
That's just enough to get inside
I will...
The Secret Sisters - "Late Bloomer" Sugarwater to the brim
They told me it'd be spring
Early September and my first
Glimpse of tiny wings
Summer's coming to an end
Magnolias are in bloom
Well, Birmingham this time of year
Is giving me...
Shelby Lynne & Allison Moorer - "My List" Let me wrap myself around you
Let you show me how I see
And when you come back in from nowhere
Do you ever think of me?
Your heart is not able
Let me show you how much I care
I need those eyes to...
