Highway Song
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
Stars fall out of the sky, my love
One by one as years go by.
One by one all the ghosts of the night
Whisper my name and fly away.
I don’t wait for the return
I don’t wait for the return
Across the miles, a goal return
Reaching for into the night.
In the dust of this highway song
I whisper your name and fly away.
I will wait for your return
I will wait for your return.
I will wait for your return
I will wait for your return.
