getting near my destination
Like a fool I nearly missed the
station that's grown so small
These shuttered houses and a
clock still standing in 1962
Good people that were never
Good people that you knew
it's not very far to ride
Jordan, it meets on the other
A stony church where lovers
God still points a finger across the sky
A stony road to no salvation,
I think that both of us were looking
for a shortcut out of here
Good people that were never
Waiting for the friendly tick
Good people died for you,
Could have brought you whiskey,
could have brought you wine
But the only thing I can't win is time,
All on board, it's not very far to ride
We meet on the other side
Could have bought you whiskey
Could have bought you wine
The only thing I can bring is time,
It's not very far to ride
We'll meet on the other side
