Riding on the Wind
Somewhere east of Eden
Riding on a midnight train
A poet, a thief and a gambler
Running from their chains
Standing at the edge of darkness
At our backs the light did shine
We heard the cry of angels
As we crossed that borderline
Riding on the wind
Searching for the way
Running from the past
Not a lot to say... hey, hey
The air became electric
The poet, he caught fire
The gambler cried for mercy
The thief, he called out liar
Lord, all I ask for
Is that you'd give me time
To pick up all my pieces
And pay for all my crimes
Riding on the wind
Searching for the way
Running from the past
Not a lot to say... hey, hey
When all that you have lived for
Lies broken in the dust
Abandoned on some roadside
Love and hope and trust
I'll not ask forgiveness
I've come to see the light
Memory stands before me
In the chill of an Autumn night
Riding on the wind
Searching for the way
Running from the past
Not a lot to say... hey, hey
Riding on a midnight train
A poet, a thief and a gambler
Running from their chains
Standing at the edge of darkness
At our backs the light did shine
We heard the cry of angels
As we crossed that borderline
Riding on the wind
Searching for the way
Running from the past
Not a lot to say... hey, hey
The air became electric
The poet, he caught fire
The gambler cried for mercy
The thief, he called out liar
Lord, all I ask for
Is that you'd give me time
To pick up all my pieces
And pay for all my crimes
Riding on the wind
Searching for the way
Running from the past
Not a lot to say... hey, hey
When all that you have lived for
Lies broken in the dust
Abandoned on some roadside
Love and hope and trust
I'll not ask forgiveness
I've come to see the light
Memory stands before me
In the chill of an Autumn night
Riding on the wind
Searching for the way
Running from the past
Not a lot to say... hey, hey
