In the city streets where I was born
People bowed their heads from dusk till dawn
Never realized the potential of their lives
Till the reaper came to cut the corn
Some were born to live a life of ease, never knowing suffering or disease
Till that final day when judgment comes their way, then they fall down on their knees and pray
This train wont stop ... till we reach the end of the line
In the golden fields of yesterday where the children used to laugh and play
You can hear the sound of hammer breaking steel
When you take more than you give it never heals
I can see it rolling cross the sky on the holy mountains where eagles cry
Far from earth below where poisoned rivers flow where Im free to let my soul and spirit fly
This train wont stop ... till we reach the end of the line
And will the road find it, and will the soul guide you down
When will we really see that higher love, when we reach the end of our lives
This train wont stop ... till we reach the end of the line
See the reaper in the field, time to get your spirit healed
Now the doors are open wide, theres no place that you can hide
Tell your children
Steve Winwood (nato Stephen Lawrence Winwood il 12 maggio 1948) è un leggendario musicista britannico noto per la sua poliedrica carriera che spazia dal rock al blues, dal soul al jazz. Iniziò a suonare giovanissimo, entrando nel gruppo The Spencer Davis Group all'età di 16 anni. Con loro ottenne grande successo negli anni '60 con brani come "Gimme Some Lovin'". Dopo la disgregazione del gruppo, Winwood si unì a Traffic, band psichedelica che lo vide comporre e interpretare successi come "Low Spark of High Heeled Boys" e "Feelin' Alright". Nel 1969 formò Blind Faith con Eric Clapton, Ginger Baker e Steve Stills, un supergruppo che registrò un unico album auto-intitolato prima di sciogliersi. Negli anni '70 Winwood intraprese una carriera solista di grande successo, pubblicando album come "Arc of a Diver" (1982) con il singolo "Higher Love", e "Back in the High Life" (1986), che lo consacrò come uno dei più grandi artisti del suo tempo. Winwood è stato insignito di numerosi premi, tra cui un Grammy Award per la sua carriera musicale.
