Highways and Stars

from Green Leaves LP by The Lost Shores

/

lyrics

If I was born in the back of a car
On a highway to nowhere
Lost in the stars of my mother's eyes
Of my mother's eyes

Could I become
Something more real
Than the man that I am
Lost like the stars in the stormy skies
In the stormy skies

I hate the rain
More than the song
That I sing in the morning when all the love is gone

In a billion years
We'll live inside the sun
I'd like to fall in love
But even more I'd like to run

Words paint the pictures of highways and stars
That I see in the back of mind
And they all seem so far away
So far away

I can remember, late in the night,
Standing out on the street
With only the light of the moon to call
Of the moon at all

Now that I'm lost to a city of light
Standing out on the corner
I never get it right

In a billion years
We'll live inside the sun
I'd like to fall in love
But even more I'd like to run
