The Highway Kind

The Highway Kind - Madeleine Peyroux (瑪黛琳·蓓荷)

Written by：Townes Van Zandt

My days they are the highway kind

They only come to leave

But the leavin' I don't mind

It's the comin' that I crave

Pour the sun upon the ground

Stand to throw a shadow

Watch it grow into a night

And fill the spinnin' sky

Time among the pine trees

It felt like breath of air

Usually I just walk these streets

And tell myself to care

Sometimes I believe me

And sometimes I don't hear

Sometimes the shape I'm in

Won't let me go

Well I don't know too much for true

But my heart knows how to pound

My legs know how to love someone

My voice knows how to sound

Shame that it's not enough

Shame that it is a shame

Follow the circle down

Where would you be

You're the only one I want now

I never heard your name

Let's hope we meet some day

If we don't it's all the same

I'll meet the ones between us

And be thinkin''bout you

And all the places I have seen

And why you where not there
