Western Highway
(Gerry O'Beirne)
I am a driver on a western highway
From the mountains and to the sea
And there's a song on the western highway
Saying I will be free
The sky is fading to the color of the valley
Dust of angels, and dust of dreams
Your city lights will shine until tomorrow
And I will not be here
cho: Your light is brighter than
Anything I've ever seen
I hear your voice on every station
Singin' out of your dream
By the roadside the trees are shiverin'
Black and silver in the cool night air
And under the moonlight hear a song you're singin'
Sayin' I will meet you there
[repeat Chorus]
Here I am on the road again
The song began and then in the end
I'll be standin' by the sea
I am a driver on a western highway
From the mountains and to the sea
And there's a song on the western highway
Sayin' I will be free.
