America · Highway [2000]
========================
Written by Dewey Bunnell, ?972
I've been down to the water
I've been on top of the world
Somebody should come and see me
Somebody should give me the word
'Cause I don't know how many more
I don't know how many more
I don't know how many more to see
Sometimes the free thoughts clash
Sometimes I see through the grass
Sometime the light begins to dim
Somebody should come and be me
Somebody should come and free me
'Cause I don't know how many more (many more)
I don't know how many more (many more)
I don't know how many more to see
Oh darlin', darlin', I always wanna see you
Oh darlin', darlin', I always wanna see you
I cannot learn much more life
I cannot see much more
Somebody should stop the new sight
Somebody should close the door
'Cause I don't know how many more (many more)
I don't know how many more (many more)
I don't know how many more to see
Wrapped in a blanket, lyin' in the snow
Feelin' like the men felt a long time ago
Goin' to find me a home, goin' to build it with my hands
Can't you see there's food to be grown
Got to dig up, dig up the land

Known for their signature three-part harmonies and acoustic-driven sound, the group achieved significant success in the 1970s with hits like "A Horse with No Name" and "Ventura Highway." While their early work defined the soft-rock era, their later recordings often explored more introspective themes and maintained their melodic sensibilities. This track sits within a discography that spans decades, reflecting the band's enduring ability to craft accessible, harmony-rich songs. The album Highway represents a period of continued output for Dewey Bunnell, Dan Peek, and Gerry Beckley, showcasing their evolution while retaining the core elements that made them a staple of classic rock radio.
