He looked them in the eyes and he knew that they were gone
Just a gang of restless hearts and the beat of one good song
The train tracks ran through the middle of the earth

Chase them to the river's edge just to see what they were worth
A few messages a day to see if they were still alive
Counting down the minutes to the bell that sounded right on time

And he said to his friend man I'm walking out the door
I keep spinning my wheels I know that we were meant for more


What do you say
We chase our dreams and run
There's nothing left here for us now

Skin it man forget the past somehow
What's done is done
We can't get it back

So follow me across these tracks
We'll live like thieves who fight the setting sun
Let's move along


We're burning through the scenes like a film we used to know
And we're living in a dream hoping we don't have to go

No I won't stop now dodging trains that come our way
The devil in the night will lead us to a brand new day


What do you say
We chase our dreams and run
There's nothing left here for us now

Skin it man forget the past somehow
What's done is done
We can't get it back

So follow me across these tracks
We'll live like thieves who fight the setting sun
Let's move along


And I'm wondering where this all will lead
If I'm fighting this alone

Then I turn and see these kids stand right by me
And I know we're walking down that same old road
Not letting go


What do you say
We chase our dreams and run

There's nothing left here for us now
Skin it man forget the past somehow
What's done is done

We can't get it back
So follow me across these tracks
We'll live like thieves who fight the setting sun

Let's move along
Oh I'm too deep into this so I'm long gone
Let's move along
