No turning back


So much promise with so much pain
Surveying eyes overloaded again
No signs to follow and the road is dark

16 miles out of Denver was slow
2000 markers more to go
Criss crossing the country so many believe in

And you're out there doing what you would die for
Believing till there's no turning back

Take the cities the railroads built
Shipping lines and immigrants
Like Leadbelly says no use for the Bourgeois Towns

Reno, San Antonio
Elko, Nuevo Laredo
You're beat and bleeding but stubbornly shining

Trying not to wear hearts on sleeves
That's the way it seems to always be
The salt and the steel of the breath of those not keeping still

I look for you and I know you're out there
In this mind we breathe the same air
Lonely roads and freight trains will keep us sane

And you're out there doing what you would die for
Believing till there's no turning back
And you're out there doing what you would die for
Believing till there's no turning back

Thank you because you correct this lyrics

Biografia

Son Volt is an American alternative country band formed in Chicago in 1994 by Jay Farrar, former member of Uncle Tupelo. After the latter's disbandment, Farrar gathered some musicians to give life to Son Volt, who immediately achieved success with their debut album "Trace" (1995). The band's sound is characterized by a mix of country rock, folk and psychedelia, influenced by artists like Neil Young, The Byrds and Gram Parsons. Among the most representative songs of Son Volt are "Drown", "Windfall" and "The World Won't End". Over the years, the group has released several successful albums, including "Straightaways" (1996), "Scenes from the Suburbs" (2000) and "American Central Dust" (2005). Jay Farrar remains the only original member of the band, which has gone through various formations throughout its history.
