Let's go and watch the traffic lights
From red to green through days and nights

The only thing to change in years
Texas medicine and my nerves

Let's pretend that I am you
And ask me what I want you too
But let's pretend is not too hot
When reality is all we've got

Early in the morning there's a dew on the rails
Early in the morning with the early morning mail
Comes a sense of ending where nothing has been going
Oh but it's still a new beginning so let's get something done
Comes a sense of ending where nothing has been going
But it's still a new beginning so let's get something done

Some years ago I chanced upon
A song entitled "When You're Gone"
I wonder where it all went
Heart and soul like money spent

I lie awake and think of you
And all the things we used to do
But waiting for the phone to ring is
Everything don't mean a thing

Early in the morning there's a dew on the rails
Early in the morning with the early morning mail

Comes a sense of ending where nothing has been going
Oh but it's still a new beginning so let's get something done
Comes a sense of ending where nothing has been going
But it's still a new beginning so let's get something done

Early in the morning there's a dew on the rails
Early in the morning with the early morning mail

Comes a sense of ending where nothing has been going
Oh but it's still a new beginning so let's get something done
Comes a sense of ending where nothing has been going
But it's still a new beginning so let's get something done
