lyrics

The storms they called for
all day finally came,
moments after I left your farm,
backing down that dirt lane.
The whole sky lit up
and rivers of rain
streamed from the car
as I pulled away.
Out on the highway
I'm picking up speed,
driving like there's
something sad pursuing me.
A phone call, a letter,
words that we speak:
it just takes a minute
to shatter a dream.
In any direction
there'll be something to lose,
but a warm south wind
might help heal these blues.
I'll stay on this highway,
going away from you
till I find a place
where I can start anew.
You said all you needed
was a little time,
and then we might give it
another try.
But you were just softening
the truth with a lie;
it's over, I know it,
it was there in your eyes.
Fierce but brief,
the storm subsides,
and an orange sunset
fills the sky.
I cross over a bridge,
and below a train rumbles by,
heading east, leaving
the empty tracks behind.
In any direction
there'll be something to lose,
but a warm south wind
might help heal these blues.
I'll stay on this highway,
going away from you
till I find a place
where I can start anew.
