Текст песни By The End of The Night - Old 97's

I went straight to the sea
The blind old fool that I am
Her face was stricken in me
Looking right where I am

She said what a beautiful life
Bedding on a grassy rim
Staring at the stars all night
'Til she is a part of them

Her wanting to be free
That's more than I could fight
She wouldn't matter to me
There by the end of the night

The T and T Railroad, you know
It's taken many alive
The meanest of the iron roads
Took her off in the night

But I want to be free
But a headlight eye is bright
The metal'll be the last I see
There by the end of the night

I went straight to the sea
The blind old fool that I am
Her face was stricken in me
Looking right where I am

She said what a beautiful life
Bedding on a grassy rim
Staring at the stars all night
'Til she is a part of them

Her wanting to be free
That's more than I could fight
She wouldn't matter to me
There by the end of the night
Yeah, she wouldn't matter to me
There by the end of the night
