We've taken this road a thousand times Rollin' away past the country line To a place therewaiting for the better every time All the promises made and the ones that were kept Bind in this distance that won't let us forget How far we've come from every turn The bridges behind us the lessons we learned No more lonely sundowns No more days of dirty rain No more nights of crying out load Wishing it was some other way Just a matter of a little more time If you listen there's a signal in the night Every time I hear that train
Running through my heart like a hurricane And all the questions that still remain Seem to find their answers here Every time I hear that train Red tile stretches from the mountains to the bay Better hang on baby, it'll take your breath away We know we belong here someday we're gonna stay It'll take all I got to leave it all today And the place where you loved me There on the sand On a hot night in August Where it all began Just a matter of a little more time If you listen there's a signal in the night
