Southern Pacifica

(album: So Runs The World Away - 2010)

Southern pacific,
Red, white and blue.
Where are we running to?

Over the wide plains.
Over the wide plains.
Take me to some place new.

Remember me to Roxianne.
(You know she's still lovely)
Tell her I was on the move.
(Last time you saw me)
That you only saw the back of my head.

Climb through the timbers,
And I'll breathe the dust of
Cosmos and wild rosebud.

Thunder from unknown
Phosphorous white glow
Sabre-tooth bones in the dusk.

Remember me to Roxianne.
(You know she's still lovely)
Tell her I was on the move.
(Last time you saw me)
That you only saw the back of my head.

Remember me to Roxianne.
(You know she's still lovely)
Tell her I was barely there.
(Last time you saw me)
That you only saw the back of my head.

Southern pacific,
Take me to meet
Whatever is hunting for me.
