lyrics

Iron rails on wooden teeth
We roll upon the Maple Leaf

We chart the earth and we sail the ground
Through Buffalo, Toronto bound

Admire churches in the towns, industries now grays and browns

A system built on lines and routes
That carves the earth and serves the crowds

Foreigners on common ground
Exchanging tales from all around

Overcoats and evening gowns, smoke and papers fill the lounge

Trodden floors that act their age
Machines with expiration dates

Creaking bones that bear the weight
The golden coals exasperate

Hypnotic rains that season lakes, rustic trees bend, blur, and shake

The whistle blows a smoky cloud
Through Buffalo, Toronto bound

Always know that you heart and soul
will fall and melt in time with snow

Admire churches in the towns, industries now grays and browns
