Nightwatchman's Blues Lyrics

by Gravenhurst

I hear it calling from the stars
i feel it in the underpass
but like a place in a dream that remains out of reach
it still eludes me

[ Lyrics from: http://www.lyricenter.com/e84000-gravenhurst~nightwatchmans_blues_lyrics.html ]
the signalmen flood the track

the night train will never come back
at morningrise I'm sent to war but still don't understand
what I am fighting for

sifting through old photographs
through the night the hours pass

in the bricked-up room they lead me too
I sing to you
I sing to you, nightwatchman's blues
