by the great missouri pacific line
there goes the last train out of town
the sun beat down and there's nothing more to see
i turn my shadow back around
back into town where i'll defend you endlessly

and if we're running out of oxygen
running out of fuel to burn
drifting's an easy flight
you said you'd stay all night
and now you're saying that the lights are growing dim
in this town we're living in
someday sun delirium i notice there something strange going down

what made so pretty
what made you so fine
what makes you did so deep
in this fool heart of mine
i should've known you'd sell our love down the line

and if we're running out of oxygen
running out of fuel to burn
drifting's an easy flight
you said you'd stay all night
and now you're saying that the lights are growing dim
up in this town we're living in
someday sun delirium i notice there something strange going down
