Schwa Lyrics

Highway Home

Lyricist: Eric Lanese
Vocalist: Eric Lanese

I've lived a life out on the highway
from town to town I've roamed
It's where that highway ends and begins
that I call home

Well you know I'm in no hurry
but sometimes I like to race
Other times I like to go real fast
just for goin' real fast's sake

I've seen the sun rise in my rear view mirror
Seen it set the same old way
Had a full moon chase me 'cross the desert
from Salt Lake City to the golden gate

Gone a thousand miles today
Broke the heart of a good man's daughter
Learned lessons from those who know
Can't blame the rain for high water
Don't curse the wind for blowin'

Sometimes rain falls on that sunbaked sandy trail
Sometimes confusion clouds my mind
Sometimes the echo of old bad news fills my head
& makes me want to cry

Gone a thousand miles today
Broke the heart of a good man's daughter
Learned lessons from those who know
Can't blame the rain for high water
Don't curse the wind for blowin'

I've lived a life out on the road
Like Willie and his friends
But you know my home is where that
long and lonely road begins and ends
