Lyrics

Always will I remember you like this

Memories of you in this manner will persist for me

Summer's bliss upon your lips

The delightful essence of summer is felt through your kisses

Standing in the haze of your wildflower gaze

Being captivated in the misty, intense look from your eyes filled with untamed beauty


All we have is the engine of time

Our only possession is the unstoppable passage of time

Conductor strolls down the aisle

A metaphorical conductor moves along the train's aisle

Ticket's blank, destination unknown

The destination remains unknown as our journey progresses


Ain't got nothing against Saint Peter

No grievances held towards Saint Peter (gatekeeper of Heaven)

Hell only knows if I'll meet her

The uncertainty exists whether I'll encounter her (the person referenced earlier)

But if I do, I'll pull out a smoke and ask her for a light

If the encounter occurs, I'll casually request a light for a cigarette


(A) picture's worth a thousand rhymes

An image carries extensive meaning, more than mere words

If you ain't the painter, you ain't got a dime

If you're not the creator, you won't earn anything significant

Living ain't easy for those who don't put up a fight

Life is challenging for those who don’t resist or struggle


Ain't got nothing against Saint Peter

No animosity held towards Saint Peter

Hell only knows if I'll meet her

The uncertainty persists about encountering her

But if I do, I'll lean in real close and offer to stay the night

If the encounter happens, I'll offer to spend the night


Some take the road while others follow the path

People choose different paths in life, some following, others forging their own
