I Wish I Was a Headlight on a Northbound Train in Wintet When it surely would be snowing Thick, white drifts of ice and snow Carried on the howling wind Makes it look like snow-white curtains ebb and flick like curtains do Visibility, non-existent, that's how dangerous it is...
Thus it is tonight - the height of Winter - that I live a life with meaning Because now I have a purpose and my purpose is real simple I'm to do what fates have fated Let my light shine through the night And I cut through icy curtains like a heated blistering knife And I feel the train push forward And I know that all the life Which is carried on my train Is deep in sleep this night.
Though they might not ever say it no they might not even think it Still! the fact remains that I yes I and the light which I shine throug the night That cuts a hole through thick white snow And lets the men who are in charge They see because of me this night
Thus it is that now I find I have a purpose in this life And this purpose has much meaning.
Much more meaning then I have Living life as anything but-
- A headlight on a Northbound train which cuts right through the falling snow and keeps my passengers alive.
