The Highway Kind

My days, they are the highway kind

They only come to leave

And the leaving I don't mind

It's the coming that I crave

Pour the sun upon the ground

And stand and throw a shadow

Watch it grow into a night

And fill the spinning sky

Time among the pine trees

Felt like a breath of air

Usually I just walk these streets

And tell myself to care

Sometimes I believe me

Sometimes I don't hear

Sometimes the shape I'm in

Won't let me go

I don't know too much for true

My heart knows how to pound

My legs know how to love someone

My voice knows how to sound

And it's a shame, if it's not enough

A shame that it is a shame

Follow that circle down

Where would you be?

You're the only one I want

And I never heard your name

Let's hope we meet someday

If we don't, it's all the same

I'll meet the ones between us

I'll be thinking 'bout you

And all the places I've been

And why you were not there
