Ridin' in the dark
By your silhouette
Reaching for your hand
A dollar in my coat
Something never spoke
Still I pay the man
And when I turn my head
To kiss you on your cheek
I’m right where I have been
Right on time
Further down the line
And do you see the man
Folding up the news
Closing up his eyes
I wanted to be him
Living in a house
Wearing fancy ties
Right on time
Further down the line
I never had a plan
Except to make you mine
Under your command
Never finished school
Only got a job
Away from my old man
But now I wonder if
You're happy on a train
Or only in your dreams
Right on time
Further down the line
Right on time
Further down the line
Right on time
Only in my mind
