On The Highway Lyrics

On The Highway Lyrics

Outer reaches come and go and I'm forever grateful
Come and tell me long and slow exactly what I'll wait for
Better times yeah better times somehow I don't believe it
Built a house up long ago just to up and leave it

There's a bright light in the cold dark night so bloom where you're planted
Still I pray to the summer rain and every heart that's slanted
Border lines and severed ties and the crickets in the meadow
Form a line and say goodbye to such a lucky fellow

Out on the highway
Like a portrait in the rain
Out on the highway
We'll never be the same again

Whittled like a mousetrap queen of the sky oh tell me I'm forgiven
Simulated pilgrims why oh why won't they take me with them
Sell me something bright and shinier than I can imagine
Parting ways those summer days so happy to have had them

Out on the highway
There's a storm out in the west
Out on the highway
Oh god I'm such a mess, once again

Out on the highway
It all comes crashing down
Out on the highway
Yeah where would we be now, I don't know
