She was standin’ near the railroad track when she
first flagged me down
I was drivin’ outta town
All alone
Her face held every feelin’ in but her eyes gave
her away
One look and you would say
No way home
Walkin’ through an airport lounge
Somewhere way off in spain
Through a scratchy intercom it came
Loud and clear...
Chorus:
You’re worn and used and you can’t talk
Your flight has been postponed, now you must
walk
Straight up that hill¨c¨cnow you must push your
own rock
The iceburg cut into the hull while the captain
rang the bell
How he went down, who could tell
Cold as ice
Beneath the waves the ocean liner sank into the
sand
You still could hear the band
Auld lang syne
Out in space their orbit then just started to
decay
She was burnin’ up the atmosphere
Burn away
Chorus repeat
