Where I'm Bound Lyrics

Can you hear it cross the valley?
Can you hear that mournful sound?
I'm riding rails of silver
Going to where I'm boundHigh above the fields of clover
On a lazy, hot July
When I get to where I'm going
I'll hold my head up highI will roll across these mountains
I will take the last train out
Riding rails of silver
Going to where I'm boundRoses, dust and ashes
Throw them where I lay
And if by chance you see me
There'll be no sorrow on my faceFor I will see the beauty
I only wish that you could see
I'll leave my body weakened
I'll leave my soul to wander free, so freeSo if you should see a diamond
Fall down from the sky, it's just a teardrop
From the corner of my eye

As goodbye as I fly, to where I'm bound
