gillian welch – i dream a highway lyrics
oh, i dream a highway back to you, love
a winding ribbon with a band of gold
a silver vision, come and rest my soul
i dream a highway back to you
john, he’s kicking out the footlights
the grand ole opry’s got a brand new band
lord, let me die with a hammer in my hand
i dream a highway back to you
i think i’ll move down into memphis
and thank the hatchet man who forked my tongue
i lie and wait until the wagons come
and dream a highway back to you
the getaway kickin’ up cinders
an empty wagon full of rattling bones
moon in the mirror on a three hour jones
i dream a highway back to you
oh, i dream a highway back to you, love
a winding ribbon with a band of gold
a silver vision, come arrest my soul
i dream a highway back to you
which lover are you, jack of diamonds?
now you be emmylou and i’ll be gram
i send a letter, don’t know who i am
i dream a highway back to you
i’m an indisguisable shade of twilight
any second now, i’m gonna turn myself on
in the blue display of the cool cathode ray
i dream a highway back to you
i wish you knew me, jack of diamonds
fire riding, wheeling when i lead ’em up
drank whiskey with my water, sugar in my tea
my sails in rags with the staggers and the jags
i dream a highway back to you
oh, i dream a highway back to you, love
a winding ribbon with a band of gold
a silver vision, come molest my soul
i dream a highway back to you
now, give me some of what you’re having
i’ll take you as a viper into my head
a knife into my bed, -rs-nic when i’m fed
i dream a highway back to you
hang overhead from all directions
radiation from the porcelain light
blind and blistered by the morning white
i dream a highway back to you
sunday morning at the diner
hollywood trembles on the verge of tears
i watched the waitress for a thousand years
saw a wheel inside a wheel, heard a call within a call
i dreamed a highway back to, you
oh, i dream a highway back to you, love
a winding ribbon with a band of gold
a silver vision, come molest my soul
i dream a highway back to you
step into the light, poor lazarus
don’t lie alone behind the window shade
let me see the mark death made
i dream a highway back to you
i dream a highway back to you
what will sustain us through the winter?
where did last years lessons go?
walk me out into the rain and snow
i dream a highway back to you
oh, i dream a highway back to you, love
a winding ribbon with a band of gold
a silver vision, come and bless my soul
i dream a highway back to you
i dream a highway back to you
oh, i dream a highway back to you, love
a winding ribbon with a band of gold
a silver vision, come and bless my soul
i dream a highway back to you
