Where I'm Bound

Patty Loveless

6

Can you hear it cross the valley

Can you hear that mournful sound

I'm riding rails of silver

Going to where I'm bound

High above the fields of clover

On a lazy, hot July

When I get to where I'm going

I'll hold my head up high

I will roll across these mountains

I will take the last train out

Riding rails of silver

Going to where I'm bound

Roses, dust and ashes

Throw them where I lay

And if by chance you see me

There'll be no sorrow on my face

For I will see the beauty

I only wish that you could see

I'll leave my body weakened

I'll leave my soul to wander free, so free

So if you should see a diamond

Fall down from the sky

Its just a teardrop

From the corner of my eye

As good-bye, as I fly

To where I'm bound
