End Of The Line
Gulf Stream Riders Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Night and day
Been out on this road for years and you don't forget
It's just another run
Once it's gone you get no second chance
Long wait for the end of the line
It's always just begun
Another rising sun
Keep an eye on them dark corners
As you go
Traveling but always here though you just can't know
It's on the tip of my tongue
Uh
Once it's gone you get no second chance
Long wait for the end of the line
It's always just begun
Long wait for the fortunate ones
Another rising sun
Hey hmm
It's a long wait for the end of the line
Once it's gone you get no second chance
Long wait for the end of the line
It's always just begun
Long wait for the fortunate ones
Another rising sun
Long wait for the end of the line
It's always just begun
Long wait for the fortunate one
Just one more rising sun
