The Railway Princess (FreightTrain Mix)
The Railway Princess [Verse 1] The prairie wind blows through the dusty town Another whistle cry, another track to run down She patches up her dress with careful, measured hand Just enough for Sunday, or across the barren land. Her bonnet tied beneath her chin, a quiet, gentle grace No gold or silver in her pocket, just light upon her face. The boxcar's open door is where she reads her simple book A silent vow of faith in every single look. [Chorus] On the rails, the sun descends, beneath the western sky, A solitary figure waves the freight trains passing by. She's the Radiant Spirit led Railway Princess, true and bold, A whispered secret in the stories that the railway's told. Oh, the track is her kingdom, the engine is her steed, She's the Radiant Spirit led Railway Princess, planting simple seeds. [Verse 2] She knows the lines and sidings like she knows the Ninety-First Psalm The rumble underneath her feet, a comforting, deep balm. The engineers all nod to her, they leave her water fresh, She never asks for favors, never traps herself in mesh. Her grandfather laid the ties down, mile after heavy mile, And now she walks his legacy with a faint, determined smile. She carries simple truths, eschews the modern world's demands, And finds a kind of freedom in the working of her hands. [Chorus] On the rails, the sun descends, beneath the western sky, A solitary figure waves the freight trains passing by. She's the Radiant Spirit led Railway Princess, true and bold, A whispered secret in the stories that the railway's told. Oh, the track is her kingdom, the engine is her steed, She's the Radiant Spirit led Railway Princess, planting simple seeds. [Bridge] She sees the grand estates and the jewels in the city lights, But she chooses the vast horizon and the cool, clear desert nights. There’s a power in poverty, a strength in not needing more, A kingdom built not on possessions but on what the soul keeps store. She’s choosing the simple path, letting the world race on past, A quiet revolution, meant eternally to last. [Chorus] On the rails, the sun descends, beneath the western sky, A solitary figure waves the freight trains passing by. She's the Radiant Spirit led Railway Princess, true and bold, A whispered secret in the stories that the railway's told. Oh, the track is her kingdom, the engine is her steed, She's the Radiant Spirit led Railway Princess, planting simple seeds. [Outro] The ties go on forever... The simple life, the open track... Princess of the boxcars, waiting for the dawn.
