Now the highway's gone and the signs are bare And the bad wind blows no good And the roads aren't headed anywhere Like I always thought they would Out in the fields that cold rusted steel Has jumped the track And there won't be no returning now That's why I wear black In my mind there's a picture of Sally-Anne
She's the last, she was the first Now she's dead or in the arms of another man And I'm not so sure what's worse (ch) In my dreams there's a road that leads me home In my dreams I'm turning back But my dreams they fade and the chains remain That's why I wear black
