Tracks Run Through The City

Michael Martin Murphey From my window shadows of the buildings in the night Run like a river, broken only by city lights Running like a thousand whispered lines Broken only by the ancient railroad ties Chorus: Out where the tracks run through the city Tracks run through the city I want to be on that train That'll take me to a place to hide Where tracks run through the city Tracks run through the city Tracks run through the city And I'm longin' to ride, please let me ride You know I want to ride that train Everybody wants to find a brand new life somewhere I know it's waiting at the end of the track somewhere out there The end of the rainbow is not meant for me Just got to find some new simplicity Chorus You know I want to ride that train Let me ride
