[ Featuring Chaz Jankel ]
I'm riding in a bullet train
Surfing on the jet stream
Blown by a hurricane
Deep into a daydream
Fly across the promised land
Cruise in the slipstream
Tune into a waveband
Ride home on a moonbeam
Been away on my own so long
My only friend was my radio
Now I'm back where I belong
I was lonely as a scarecrow
Sitting here on my doorstep
Thinking about the goodbyes
Play guitar with a bottleneck
Sad thoughts just vaporise
Music takes us way up high
Lifts us higher than a clear blue sky
Way up above the stormy weather
Music brings us close together
Stamp my foot on the wooden floor
Tap a spoon on a sugar bowl
Echoes like a sounding board
Resonates deep in my soul
Old songs like a mighty river
Flow along through time
Like reading from the holy scripture
Sent down through the grapevine
There's the end of the rainbow
I can see that pot of gold
No further than a stone's throw
If only I can get a foothold
Now I'm back on the road again
Singing to folks I've never met
Day dreaming in a bullet train
Sun is rising and I haven't slept
Music takes us way up high
Lifts us higher than a clear blue sky
Way up above the stormy weather
Music brings us close together
