A hazy mist hung down the street
|
The length of it's mile -
|
As far as my eye could see
|
The sky so wide, the houses tall
|
Or so they seemed to be,
|
So they seemed to me so small,
|
And it gleamed in the distance
|
And it shone like the sun -
|
Like silver & gold - it went on & on.
|
|
The summer nights that seemed so long
|
Always call me back to return -
|
As I re-write this song
|
|
The ghosts of night, the dreams of day
|
Make me swirl & fall & hold me in their sway -
|
And it's still in the distance
|
And it shines like the sun -
|
Like silver & gold - it goes on & on.
|
|
The rolling stock rocked me to sleep -
|
Amber lights flashing 'cross the street
|
And on the corner.....a dream to meet -
|
going on & on.
|
|
On & on,
|
On & on..........
|
