The High Road Lyrics - Tim O'brien

Up on the high road lookin' down 

Thinking how you let me down 

And deep in my heart I hear the sound 

Of the song that carried me away 

We would come here years ago 

And the stars would shine and the wind would blow 

You'd look in my eyes and I would know 

That you would carry me away 

Late last week in the marketplace 

I heard your voice and I saw your face 

You were gone without a trace 

It sure did carry me away 

I'll play a tune and watch the stars 

Hope the wind will carry it far 

And if you hear me wherever you are 

Just let it carry you away
