There was a time when your waters had run still
I don't know where, but those waters have died
As you held hands with the hell beneath your feet
You turned your back and waved heaven goodbye

[Chorus]
When the levee fell away
For you lost more than yourself that day
When the levee fell away
Forever is just a word you say

For all of the colors in your dreams have gone astray
Just like a blind man who's lost his way
As the clock ticks and the end is near
You left town, yet your troubles are all still there

[Chorus]

This train has run out of track
As the engines fade
Far, far, far away, you fall
And that's where you'll stay

[Chorus]
