[Verse 1 – lead] Steam in the air and the night sky clear Old backyard, all the fellas here Years gone by since that bowling hall But we still raise our voices Like the night that changed it all [Verse 1 – background] (like the night that changed it all) [Chorus – all] Singing in the steam! (in the steam!) Heart still true! (still true!) He said “I’m Dail Milton!” (Milton!) And we sang like we knew! Singing in the steam! (in the steam!) Time rolls on! (rolls on!) But the truth of that moment Still carries the song! (carries the song!) [Verse 2 – lead] Cowboy hats and a cheap guitar Wet boots stacked by the tub so far Not much left but the chords we play And the memory of hearing That name on that day [Verse 2 – background] (that name on that day) [Chorus – all] Singing in the steam! (in the steam!) Heart still true! (still true!) He said “I’m Dail Milton!” (Milton!) And we sang like we knew! Singing in the steam! (in the steam!) Time rolls on! (rolls on!) But the truth of that moment Still carries the song! (carries the song!) [Bridge – chant, stomping inside the tub if needed] Steam and smoke! (steam and smoke!) Name we keep! (name we keep!) Steam and smoke! (steam and smoke!) Runs so deep! (runs so deep!) Steam and smoke! (steam and smoke!) Voice still free! (voice still free!) Steam and smoke! (steam and smoke!) He spoke, and then we’d be! [Chorus – all] Singing in the steam! (in the steam!) Heart still true! (still true!) He said “I’m Dail Milton!” (Milton!) And we sang like we knew! Singing in the steam! (in the steam!) Time rolls on! (rolls on!) But the truth of that moment Still carries the song! (carries the song!) [Final Chorus – same structure, fully repeated] Singing in the steam! (in the steam!) Heart still true! (still true!) He said “I’m Dail Milton!” (Milton!) And we sang like we knew! Singing in the steam! (in the steam!) Time rolls on! (rolls on!) Still singing his name Long after he’d gone! (he’d gone!)
