lyrics

ONE HIGHWAY AWAY (Warner)

That one road between the capitals
800ks, mostly straight
I could drive almost all the way with my eyes closed
I never saw the exit sign, so you say
It’s true, I never used to stop in much to see you along the way
Now I fly most every time, if I go, anyway

Perhaps, one day, we might live in the same town
Your weatherboard house, verandah falling down
And ‘til he leaves you, ‘til I hit pay day
And ‘til one of us shifts ground
It’s as you say,
We’re just one highway
We’re just one highway
Away

Aint that long since we talked on the phone
You still make sense of our old thread
A man is not much more than he remembers
And I’ve tried to kill off everything in my head
Now all the ghosts of yesterday are living on my porch instead
They’re not moving soon ‘cause they know I can’t fill ‘em twice with lead

Perhaps, one day, we might live in the same town
Your weatherboard house, verandah falling down
And ‘til he leaves you, ‘til I hit pay day
And ‘til one of us shifts ground
It’s as you say,
We’re just one highway
We’re just one highway
Away

All things pass, at least you can laugh
All this trouble seems so close today
I never thought I’d still be stuck in Melbourne
I spent half my life on the road to Mandalay
Plane trees like giant hands pushing up from underneath the clay
Reaching up for something in the sky that’s already blown away

Perhaps, one day, we might live in the same town
Your weatherboard house, verandah falling down
And ‘til he leaves you, ‘til I hit pay day
‘Til it all leads me to your doorway
And ‘til one of us shifts ground
It’s as you say
We’re just one highway
We’re just one highway
We’re just one highway
