I dream a highway back to you love
A winding river* with a band of gold
A silver vision come and rest my soul
I dream a highway back to you.
Johnny's kicking out the footlights
The grande ol' opry's got a brand new band
Lord let me die with a hammer in my hand
I dream a highway back to you.
The getaway kicking up cynders
An empty waggon full of rattling bones
Moon in the mirror on a three hour jones
I dream a highway back to you.
I dream a highway back to you love
A winding ribbon with band of gold
A silver vision come molest my soul
I dream a highway back to you.
Hangover head from all direction
Radiation from the porcelain light
Blind and blistered by the morning white
I dream a highway back to you.
Step into the light poor Lazarus
Don't lie alone behind the window shade
Let me the mark death made
I dream a highway back to you.
What will sustain us through the winter?
Where did last year's lessons go?
Walk me out into the rain and the snow
I dream a highway back to you.
*The singer mistakenly says 'river' in this verse, it should be 'Ribbon.'
