Wish I Was a Railroad Train (single)
I wish I was a railroad train
Far out on the western plain
My whistle’d blow all through the night
Freedom with no end in sight
If I could be the oceans wide
I’d let the storm clouds be my guide
The wind would be my on true friend
Take me far away from where I’ve been
Somewhere between who I was meant to be and who I am
Remains not a single rock unturned
Surely there will come a time when I can understand
Surely there will come a time I learn
If I could be a mountain tall
I’d look out and see it all
The fields below me white with snow
And the little rocks from which I’d grown
If I were a single leaf
In a forest of a million trees
No one would see me wave along
But I’d be right where I belonged
Somewhere between who I was meant to be and who I am
Remains not a single rock unturned
Surely there will come a time when I can understand
Surely there will come a time I learn
