HighwayA Chapter by Shawn PurcellThe mystic lure of highway travel with the desire of freedom.Born
from pain, bound for freedom. I
feel the wild wind in my face. I
will sustain where I meet resistance Like
a pirate on a midnight run. I’m
back And
I’m eager to step forward Into
the grips of the unknown For
yet another show down Chorus When
I ride the highway, I
am one with the night. Till
the sun comes out tomorrow And
reveals first light. This
is not the way If
there’s going to be an honest go at it. Just
go a little farther And
trust the spirits of the land. Fight
the highway gods When
they show their face. Show
them you don’t fear them. When
they say leave, stay. Chorus
2 When
I ride the highway, There’s
only one thing in sight. Sand
and road And
painted white lines. © 2013 Shawn Purcell |
