Murray McLauchlan - Highway One lyrics

Smell of the sweetgra** seems to carry on the breeze Light of the moon Washes through the windshield of the car While we wonder what we are We put a lot of miles on Humming songs from the radio We felt so free Didn't have no paticular place to go Left our troubles down the road Maggie I felt like the traps of the world Were closing Maggie I felt like we were going down In flames Maggie I took your hand And we just started running Maggie I wanted to live again Watching a jet plane drawing lines across the sky Think of the people Do they know we're just as high? Somewhere down near the great divide I'm feeling much stronger The rush of the wind is like blood to me Feeling you with me Sharing all the colors of the things we see Ain't no place we have to be Maggie I felt like the traps of the world Were closing Maggie I felt like we were going down In flames Maggie I took your hand And we just started running Maggie I wanted to live again The dust is blowing Up across old highway one White-faced cattle, silhouetted by the sun Dreaming of a man with a horse and gun We've taken our chances with those drifting tumbleweeds Taken our chances, til we found out what we need Watch the waves break from the sea Maggie I felt like the traps of the world Were closing Maggie I felt like we were going down In flames Maggie I took your hand And we just started running Maggie I wanted to live again
