lyrics

Another day, another loop along the route complete.
Another day, another endless road stuck on repeat.
By the lake, see the ship docked in from New Orleans.
Where have you been?

Calling the scenery out the window like a pilot.
As if the bus had wings unseen and he could fly it.
He is a good man, full of big plans.
Is he waiting for the right time?
Is he waiting for some kind of divine sign to say....

Take my love
into the world beyond
on the Silver Arrow run.

Another day, another kid with empty pockets laying in the street.

To stay the hate, silently recites lines from memory.
Word for word, Angelou and Hughes and The Rose Has Teeth.
By the lake, the ship dormant for years it seems.
Where are your dreams?

With a hiss, the bus sinks down to its knees,
Sighing low, like a beat-down beast with broken wings.
He is a good man, full of big plans.
And how easy now it seems,
for him to step on deck and sail out to the sea..... Singing

Take my love
into the world beyond
on the Silver Arrow run.
