lyrics

Two rivers crossing in the valley below
On a train out of Whitehorse with nowhere to go
The rhythm of the engines comes on like a blast
Pulls him right back into the past

She stared into the mirror that she kept upon the shelf
She had left it all behind, didn't recognize herself
But she knew she couldn't hide when they came from Belfast
She got swept right back into the past

Into the past, into the past
Into the past, into the past

He was breathing on a ventilator listening to an old church bell
Thinking of the things he'd done and they didn't sit that well The walls of time collided, now the end was coming fast Bowed his head and closed his eyes into the past

Charlotte had a habit, she couldn't shake it if she tried
She had a picture of her daughter, she held it when she cried
They found a note tied to her body, said "Now I'm free at last, I didn't have no future, so I'm going into the past."

Into the past, into the past
Into the past, into the past
Into the past, into the past
Into the past

Gonna' save myself, gonna' use my hands
Down from Alberta into Indian lands
Now there's no turning back, voodoo spell was cast
Tonight, we're going into the past

Now I know tomorrow's coming, but it seems so far away Train gets to Seattle, in another day
He remembers her voice, how her beauty seemed so vast Looking out the window into the past

Into the past, into the past
Into the past, into the past
Into the past, into the past
Into the past
into the past
