I heard the song that starts out" Traveling at night, our headlights were bright, and we'd been up many an hour" (don't know the name) live many years ago and fell in love with the melody. Ive sung the words to the middle verse as:
"The people I meet, they come in between/the city, the tiring life./Trains come and go, but inside, ya know/ The struggle will soon be a flight"
but I've never been certain of it... Have I got it right?
