The New York Central Railroad was something in her day A million tons of coal and steel must have passed this way The Ghost of some old engineer Walks this earth and you might hear While looking down on all those lights "Could I see your ticket please." When It's gone it's gone But the echoes just go on and on and on and on We send it out like our breath And somebody takes it in, Somebody takes it in Someone In the age of possibility cheap gas, John Glenn and tube TV When Martin walked many miles to stand beside Gandhi But faith was stoned with cans and rocks And the neighbor kid came home in a box Now we don't believe so much of everything we hear When It's gone it's gone But the echoes just go on and on and on and on We send it out like our breath And somebody takes it in, Somebody takes it in Someone Tomorrow's just to far to see To far to know to love or grieve Every action is received Like a legacy It is our legacy Route 26 was open fields and I remember when Now every town I pass on through Has the same outer skin How could he sell his father's bones All the others did but he just won't He says "When I'm dead you can take it all But for now just let them graze." When It's gone it's gone But the echoes just go on and on and on and on We send it out like our breath And somebody takes it in, Somebody takes it in Someone When It's gone it's gone But the echoes just go on and on and on and on We send it out like our breath And somebody takes it in, Somebody takes it in Someone
