Michael Beatty: Lyrics & Listen

Lost Highway Home

(Michael Beatty)

I took to a night road

Like a sailor takes to sea

To find the long lost child

Inside of me

I looked upon the rolling hills

And splinters of the sky

To find my double image

In a truck stop light

 

I am young but I am old

I never do what I've been told

I'm all revved up, good to go

Two lane time, lost highway home

 

Now I am not alone

I've got these memories of you

Playing four square ball

Behind the school

Photographs or memories

Which ever vice you choose

Will silently unravel 

The hang mans noose

 

I am young but I am old

I never do what I've been told

I'm all revved up, good to go

Two lane time, lost highway home

 

Visions of another time

Confront the beast within

On a jet black off-ramp

I'll return again

Cause night will fall

Like an anvil in your heart

Waiting on some love

For the clouds to part

 

I am young, but I am old

I never do what I've been told

I'm all revved up, good to go

Two lane time, lost highway home
