Highway Kind Lyrics

HIGHWAY KIND - Townes Van Zandt
Intro: Em Em9 C D Em
My days they are the highway kind, they only come to leave.
The leaving I don't mind, it's the coming that I crave.
Pour the sun upon the ground, stand to throw a shadow.
Watch it grow into the night and feel the spinning sky.
Time among the pine trees, it felt like breath of air.
Usually I just walk this 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 but my heart knows how to pound.
My legs know how to love someone; my voice knows how to sound.
Shame that it's not enough; shame that it is a shame.
Follow the circle down, where would you be?
You're the only one I want and I've 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, and be thinking about you;
and all the places I have seen and why you were not there.
