Waltzing Too Long

Caught the last train to this winter station
The air is too cold the dream is still real
There's rivers that tangle, turn on the flood plain
Like sad conversations where all is revealed
Was it a smile that came to your eyes
As you stumbled punch drunk to the dawn
Then the thought that passed, like a spectre at night
Was it maybe I'm waltzing too long

You tasted the waters that flowed by the mountain
So sweet when you're climbing, so sour when you're gone
And you broke your back when you weren't even trying
Pushing boulders to heaven while your heart pulled back home
You woke in a sweat, the gutter seemed warm
But hell it's no place to get wrong
And you rode the train under the pale moon again
Thinkin' maybe I'm waltzing too long
Thinkin' maybe I'm waltzing too long

There are regrets and there are forgivings
If you stand like a statue if you run like a storm
It's a minute past six in the land of the living
Somewhere there's crying - it goes on too long
Did you collide with the pain that you hide
And just what are those words to that song
Ah you fell to the floor as the band hit the first chord
Singin' maybe I'm waltzing too long
