lirik lagu mike reid & joe henry - sleeper car

[verse 1]
i stole from the grave
as the show lumbered on
its curtain and ladders
climbing up with the dawn
that breaks like a heart
and howls like the yawn
of the stretching and wild rolling sea

[verse 2]
i’ve never so fully
kept faith with the ghost
who sits now beside me
with tea and with toast
in a rattling sleeper car
tracing the coast
through the darkness between you and me

[chorus]
flag our man down
when he comes back this way
our cup runneth over
and there’s h~ll to pay
for all we’ve been given
and did not give away
flag down the man going by
there may be time yet we can try
[verse 3]
the barreling couples
at buffalo falls
wave to the cheering
to those who would call
with a look out below!
and good luck to you all!
just as they drive the nails in

[verse 4]
to hold back the years
and keep the lid closed
for the roll on its side
when over, she goes:
a drop in the bucket
of life, as we know
that this is how real love begins

[chorus]
flag our man down
when he comes back this way
our cup runneth over
and there’s h~ll to pay
for all we’ve been given
and did not give away
flag down the man going by
there may be time yet we can try
[verse 5]
we have in our favor
the time at our backs
though chasing our tails
like a train on the tracks:
steaming and blowing
its whistle for lack
of the too~many~words we have known

[verse 6]
i could rest here
on the rails for the night
for i can grow weary
in the face of such light
of the engine that could
and the one that just might
follow us all the way home

[chorus]
flag our man down
when he comes back this way
our cup runneth over
and there’s h~ll to pay
for all we’ve been given
and did not give away
flag down the man going by
there may be time yet we can try
there may be time yet
there may be time yet
though there may be time yet
time yet we can try
