lyrics

Highway Song PT 2
(When The Evening Dies Blue)

Out on the highway to the tune of the dying sun
I drive fuelled by the hopes that I have
And as the evening comes down and sings me her song
I cry won’t you take me home now

As I see them planes a flyin’ overhead
I don’t wander no more to where they’re sent
My heart is safe and sound firmly on the ground
Cryin I have finally found you now

And late that night the empty bottle rolls
And somewhere the midnight bell tolls
Of fair weather or warning I just do not know
I cry won’t you take me home now

As a mistress love can be so cruel
Show you the light then blind you like a fool
(Show you her hand then play you like a fool)
And when the evening dies blue, maybe I will too
Crying won’t you take me home now
