lyrics

Some ride up North
And some ride West
But I ride to the ocean

On wheels of gold
A stolen steed
But he and I have good intentions

Those dreary nights
How Roland howls
And the jukebox girls are all aglow

We leave by dawn
And joke about
All the brass buttons that we wore
Oh , in a time before

I don't know how I'd fly
If not for your wheels of gold
Why I'd fall from the sky
If not for your wheels of gold
Get me to Kato's Peak
On your trusted wheels of gold
Yours is the only hand I seek
Hold me to the open shore

And when the cream
Atop the hills
Dissolves so still and tender
Should you stay too still
My restless feet and mind will help you to remember
Oh, remember

I don't know how I'd fly
If not for your wheels of gold
Why I'd fall from the sky
If not for your wheels of gold
Get me to Kato's Peak
On your trusted wheels of gold
Yours is the only hand I seek
Hold me to the open shore

Echoes at the target wall (If not for your wheels of gold)
Go and light it when it falls (If not for your wheels of gold)
Kick the ruins towards the beach (If not for your wheels of gold)
Yours is the only hand I seek

If not for your wheels of gold
