Your Bright Baby Blues (Live)

Your Bright Baby Blues - Jackson Browne

I'm sit down by the highway

Down by that highway side

Everybody's goin' somewhere

Ridin' just as fast as they could ride

I guess they got a lot to do

Before they can rest assured

Their lives are justified

Pray to God for me, babe, he can let me slide

I've been up and down this highway

Far as my eyes can see

No matter how fast I run

I can never seem to get away from me

No matter where I am

I can't thinkin', help I'm just a day away

Where I wanna be

Now I'm runnin' home, baby

Like a river to the sea

Baby, if you could see me

Out across this wilderness

There's just one thing

I was hopin' you might guess

Baby, you can free me

All in the power of your sweet tenderness

I can see it in your eyes

You've got those bright baby blues

You don't see what you've got to gain

But you don't like to lose

You watch yourself from the sidelines

Like your life is a game

You don't playin', mind to keep yourself amused

I don't mean to be cruel, babe

But you're confused

Baby if you can hear me

Turn down your radio

There's just one thing

I want you to know

When you've been near me

I've felt the love

Stirrin' in my soul,oh yeah,

It's so hard to come by

That feeling of peace

This friend of mine said

"Close your eyes

And try a few of these"

I thought I flyin' like a bird

So far above my sorrow

But when I looked down

I was standin' on my knees

Now I need

Someone to help me

Someone to help me, please

Baby, if you need me

Like I know I need you

There's just one thing

I'll ask you to do

Take my hand and lead me

To the hole in your garden wall

And pull me through, pull me through
