papa hoodlum & the hard truth - turquoise highway lyrics

i’m standing in the doorway with my coffee
and a book i’ve read before
the cars on normal street race by me
like they always do beyond the door
the ground is green, i think god was in my dreams
the floor is cold, there’s birds conversing
i wonder could i ask for too much more
you’re overseas without me, or maybe
you’re just still asleep there down the hall
a friendly wind blows through the screen
it’s six, the clock announces from the wall
the air is clear, it goes down like a beer
and gratitude sits with me
as i paint this morning mind+dream blue
and i hеar the sound of nothing there at all

and thе sun he travels light and wanton
on his turquoise highway in the sky
he sometimes sees the moon
they laugh and trade their stories as they’re passing by
and today it shines like a river in july
that all is as it should be

something in the light today and how it sits
brings me back to the kid
when i was ten, i didn’t know you then
but then again, maybe i did
he bowed, he stood
he did the best he could
and spoke his thoughts alone in darkness
peering through the cracks from where he hid
i’ve grappled with the shadows in my head
and with the man i used to be
and learned to listen for the voice that beckons
from the better part of me
the words are clear, they’re burning in my ears
i want to walk the blue
and watch the waves of time wash over you
looking down on all that ocean through the years
‘cause the sun, he travels bright, undaunted
on his turquoise highway in the sky
he sometimes hides the stars
but they’re always there to light the asphalt of the night
there’s always more soul ground to explore
but all is as it should be

i’m back inside your room
i see you there, and hear you breathing
i want to touch your hair
and have you know just what i’m thinking
about the sun

and how he travels light and wanton
on his carefree turquoise highway in the sky
well, he sometimes sees the moon
you know they laugh and trade their stories passing by
i hope you know you had me long ago
and all is as it should be
