Highway of Tears

Wind is blowing, through your hair, it's golden

like the moon, like the sun, like the stars

Radio's on, playing an old rock song,

about a gun – you sing along but you get the words wrong

You look to the left and it doesn't look right

I wonder why we fuss and fight

Spinning wheels and shifting gears

As we take our turn on a highway of tears

I'm gonna have to face it, one more time. Erase it

You're already gone, in another song (tu-du-du du, tu-du-du-du)

Your pale ghost is haunting my dark dreams

Every night I wake up, staring into the white (into the white)

It's alright, you do me wrong

I just wonder what the hell I've done

Spinning wheels and shifting gears

As we turn around on a highway of tears

Spring is here again, so you'd better start swimming my friend

the water's cold so I'm told

The water's cold, don't be bold

Better don't show, better don't tell

I just thought you were somebody else

We've slowed down throughout the years

But there's no looking back on a highway of tears

No, there's no looking back on a highway of tears
