She Leaves You Where You Are Lyrics - Ely Joe

This highway's like a girl I knew 

You climb into her car. 

She takes you many places 

She leaves you where you are. 

Her ribbons are all a tangle 

Her breath is long and fast 

But if you're only tryin' to pass the time 

Her love will never last. 

This highway's like a girl I knew 

Who walks you to her door. 

She teases you with lovin' arms 

And promises you more. 

And then one day she walks away 

Says she ain't goin' far. 

She takes you many places 

But she leaves you where you are. 

This highway's like a girl I knew 

Who had your very soul. 

But you tried to get too close to her 

To have and to hold. 

Days and nights you chase her 

With your bag and your guitar. 

She takes you many places 

But she leaves you where you are. 

She takes you many places 

But she leaves you where you are.
