lyrics

REST

The train is slick on frozen steel.
The wheels go clicking through the day.
The serpent slips through whipping cream,
And fog and sleet would bar the way.
A younger man recalls the love,
Recalls the love he never told.
He sold his heart for silent dreams.
It seems the days are growing cold.

Chorus:
Let me take my needed rest.
Yesterdays will be my best.
Sleep forever; sleep today.
Let me sleep my life away.

The train is floating on the fog.
It winds around through frozen rain,
And snow is on the northern winds
To cool and soothe all earthly pain.
A younger man is wandering
And wonders if his love is sane.
He feels the frozen, trembling rails
And runs to meet the passing train.

Chorus
