This highway's like a girl I knew
|
You climb into her car.
|
She takes you many places
|
She leaves you where you are.
|
|
Her ribbons are all a tangle
|
Her breath is long and fast
|
But if you're only tryin' to pass the time
|
Her love will never last.
|
|
This highway's like a girl I knew
|
Who walks you to her door.
|
She teases you with lovin' arms
|
And promises you more.
|
|
And then one day she walks away
|
Says she ain't goin' far.
|
She takes you many places
|
But she leaves you where you are.
|
|
This highway's like a girl I knew
|
Who had your very soul.
|
But you tried to get too close to her
|
To have and to hold.
|
|
Days and nights you chase her
|
With your bag and your guitar.
|
She takes you many places
|
But she leaves you where you are.
|
|
She takes you many places
|
But she leaves you where you are.

She Leaves You Where You Are
