The roar of the engine drowned out our sorrow and pain
The promise of something good on the horizon
Was gone as quickly as it came
Even if only for one brief moment we rolled across the plains
As fast as the winds coming in.We were strong enough
To have our way
Call me when you reach the end
I can't go on without
I can't go on without
If I have to wait to change my fate
For 100 years or more
For 100 years or more
That's what I'll do
There was no motorcade but we all wore black, just like
We always did. The sight of your face in that
Cold wooden case had me feeling like a helpless
Little kid. Fault of none when it was
All done there wasn't much left to do
We couldn't change that path we walked now
Even if we wanted to
Call me when you reach the end
I can't go on without
I can't go on without
If I have to wait to change my fate
For 100 years or more
For 100 years or more
That's what I'll do
That's what I'll do
Call me when you reach the end
I can't go on without
I can't go on without
If I have to wait to change my fate
For 100 years or more
For 100 years or more
That's what I'll do
