Текст песни
[Verse 1] You drew a map across your sleeve With a borrowed pen and restless feet The platform clock was running slow But every track said go, go, go [Pre-Chorus] You laughed and said, “Pick any line” So I chose the one that crossed the pines [Chorus] Take me where the rails turn gold Where the hills have stories left untold If we miss the final stop tonight We’ll make a new one by the light Take me past the signs we know With your hand in mine and nowhere to go Every mile is opening wide Come on, let the wild decide [Verse 2] A paper ticket, folded twice A red scarf flashing in the light The conductor called a name unknown We cheered as if it were our own [Pre-Chorus] The landscape changed from gray to green Like turning pages in a dream [Chorus] Take me where the rails turn gold Where the hills have stories left untold If we miss the final stop tonight We’ll make a new one by the light Take me past the signs we know With your hand in mine and nowhere to go Every mile is opening wide Come on, let the wild decide [Bridge] And if the engine slows At a town beneath the stars We’ll count the distant radio towers Like constellations from a moving car No map can hold the road ahead No promise needs a name The world is bigger than we guessed And we are not the same [Final Chorus] Take me where the rails turn gold Where the hills have stories left untold For the first few lines, just you and me And the guitar beneath our feet Take me past the signs we know With your hand in mine and nowhere to go Every mile is opening wide Come on, let the wild decide Take me where the rails turn gold Let the whole horizon take control If tomorrow asks us where we’ve been We’ll point to every place we’ve seen Take me past the signs we know With your hand in mine and nowhere to go Every mile is opening wide Come on, let the wild decide [Outro] Gold on the rails, gold in the trees A little farther, a little free Gold on the rails, hear that refrain Round the bend and back again Gold on the rails, gold in the trees A little farther, a little free The line keeps singing, soft and bright Carry us onward through the night
