The Engineers Promise Songtext
von The Eastern

I′ll come rolling back to you
Where the harbour lights so blue
Where the stars hang still right in the sky
And the coal trains drag on by

I will see you by and by
That's one thing to hold true
I′ll be rolling on the tide
Come sailing back to you

The night it is a bitter friend
As tears leave morning dew
But as the day begins its work
I'll come back to you


Time goes fast with a heart of hope
As the miles they pass slow
I'll be traveling through soot and smoke
Just to let you know

I will see you by and by
That′s one thing to hold true
I′ll be rolling on the tide
Come sailing back to you

Night it is a bitter friend
As tears leave morning dew
But as the day begins its work
I'll come back to you

But as the day begins its work
I′ll come back to you
