River of Stone Lyrics by Restless Heart

Fast Movin’ Train

1990

[Verse 1]
There's a highway that runs right through this town
Just a stream of light when the sun goes down
She'd look out the window to the west
One day this note was all she left
[Pre-Chorus]
"Right now, you don't see
But you're just like me"
[Chorus]
River of stone, wild and lonely
Can you show me what lies beyond?
Take me where they don't know me
By tomorrow morning, I'll be gone
[Verse 2]
This old town is way too small
When you've seen one face, you've seen 'em all
And the only way things will ever change
Is to set your feet on the outbound lane
[Pre-Chorus]
Oh, how did she know
One day I would follow?
[Chorus]
River of stone, wild and lonely
Can you show me what lies beyond?
Take me where they don't know me
By tomorrow morning, I'll be gone
[Bridge]
Some got to move
Some just stand still
Some take their chances
Some never will
[Chorus]
River of stone, wild and lonely
Can you show me what lies beyond?
Take me where they don't know me
By tomorrow morning, I'll be gone
[Refrain]
I'll be gone
I'll be gone
I'll be gone
I'll be gone
