lyrics

Just got back from the line of fire where the holy light freezes
Just got back from the line of fire where the holy light freezes
Just got back from the line of fire where the holy light freezes
Hallelu-Hallelujah

Sometimes Darkness in the mind, Sometimes it leaves us
Sometimes Darkness in the mind, Sometimes it leaves us
Sometimes Darkness in the mind, Sometimes it leaves us
Hallelu-Hallelujah

If I wake up tomorrow with my mind, I will set it on Jesus
If I wake up tomorrow with my mind, I will set it on Jesus
If I wake up tomorrow with my mind, I will set it on Jesus
Hallelu-Hallelujah

(“Railroad”)

In the valley of the railroad bridge there is a garden lush and green
And unusual flowers blossom there
It was there I saw my true love talking to the wind
And it played with a strand of her hair

Are you coming for to carry me home?
Are you coming for to carry me home?

In the blinking of an eye I saw the two of them had gone
They disappeared without making a sound
I walked among the sleepers, along the path of steel
Out a trace of my love can't be found

Are you coming for to carry me home?
Are you coming for to carry me home?

(“Reprise”)

Just got back from the line of fire where the holy light freezes
Sometimes Darkness in the mind, Sometimes it leaves us
If I wake up tomorrow with my mind, I will set it on Jesus
Hallelujah
