[Verse 1]
Across the dark and dusty plain
Where scars of old dry rivers run
The night unfolds a coal-black shroud
Across the hard and stony ground
Distant stars shining bright
In the cavern of the night
All is still, then sudden screams
The thunder of the Lorca train
[Verse 2]
Flaming steel as swift as wind
The wires hum and the rails, they ring
Smokestack burning, fiery sparks
Rise up and to the stars
Towns asleep by empty roads
Churches rise from crooked roofs
Cloaked in darkness nothing stirs
Grow smaller, darker, disappears
[Chorus]
See the moon so still and cold
A million stars that shed no warmth
Your nightmares all come out to play in the silver light
Wait for sunrise in the east
Long shadows crawl across the plain
Ghosts of night will disappear, lay your fears to rest
Across the dark and dusty plain
Where scars of old dry rivers run
The night unfolds a coal-black shroud
Across the hard and stony ground
Distant stars shining bright
In the cavern of the night
All is still, then sudden screams
The thunder of the Lorca train
[Verse 2]
Flaming steel as swift as wind
The wires hum and the rails, they ring
Smokestack burning, fiery sparks
Rise up and to the stars
Towns asleep by empty roads
Churches rise from crooked roofs
Cloaked in darkness nothing stirs
Grow smaller, darker, disappears
[Chorus]
See the moon so still and cold
A million stars that shed no warmth
Your nightmares all come out to play in the silver light
Wait for sunrise in the east
Long shadows crawl across the plain
Ghosts of night will disappear, lay your fears to rest
