Here's a preview track from our upcoming spring release, Highway of Diamonds.
you remind me of the railroad bridge
stretching over the Arkansas river
all through the quiet night there’s no one else around
I dangle my feet in the air
hear the ghosts of trains rumble
watch as the station lights burn out
chorus:
I don’t want to want you anymore
I don’t want to want you anymore
slow it down, slow it down, baby, down
so we met under smoke rings
talked til the bars closed down
went walking in the autumn streets at night
I never got to touch your face
all that air in between our bodies
how could you let me fade away
(chorus)
some night as you sleep
a Zephyr will invade your dreams
and that will be the sound of me
slipping away through the air
(chorus)
