Lyrics for Song: Highways And Broken Hearts
Lyrics for Album: Live at the Jolly Fox [2006]
He never knew their names,
he never really cared
Lying to himself was never just a young kid scared
Living on his own, with no one to hold on to
No where to go, nothing to do
But lie awake and pray that one day
Someone will come his way
All he knows are highways and broken hearts
Late nights and old guitars
Wondering where you are
You're so far away
Shoes are worn and tired and not at their best
Like a gypsy never sure where he'll be going next
Superficial friends and girls with glazed over eyes
it's a good time,
but just for the night
and off he'll go to maybe Mexico
and off to Colorado
All he knows are highways and broken hearts
Late nights and old guitars
Wondering where you are
You're so far away, yeah
Staring through the walls of that motel room
Reflecting on his days, the route he's seemed to chose
Will good outshine the bad,
can he turn this thing around?
Should he drop to his knees,
or just give up now?
Beggin' for release in the night
Has he gone too far to fight?
All he knows are highways and broken hearts
Late nights and old guitars
Wondering where you are
You're so far away
You're so far away
You're so far away, yeah
