Highway and the Moon

歌詞

It was a preface to motion Rolling down the Oklahoma highway Highway and the moon The moon beat down With cloudless devotion It seemed like all heaven Was going my way Going my way It was a preface to waking The smell of gasoline A dream of milk and honey Honey how are you You were there In the dawn before the daybreak Rising before Venus The morning star and humming A tune I could not name Tune I could not name And swallows were tumbling Over our heads they were Falling by turns By turns rising again Seamlessly tracing The profile of night In a balance of meaning And motion and light And there on the water Passing below I saw our bodies reflected As a perfect palindrome We go tearing our love down To build it up again From different directions we mean the same We are the same as we've always been It was a preface to knowing Throwing down the dreams of my own making For making better time And time rolls on Heedless of our holding This momentary franchise The kingdom I have made Of your bloodshot smile Of your bloodshot smile And swallows were tumbling Over our heads they were Falling by turns By turns rising again Seamlessly tracing The profile of night In a balance of meaning And motion and light And there on the water Passing below I saw our bodies reflected As a perfect palindrome We go tearing our love down To build it up again From different directions we mean the same We are the same as we've always been
