Elliott Smith - Dancing On The Highway Lyrics

Here if you want me
Listening so close
From far away
I memorized what you’ve told me

Like a foreigner on holiday
I know to smile at confusion
And don’t forget the soul that smiles on me
Dancing on the Highway

The broken line that led
From you to me
Well I’ll be at my station all night
So come on by if you feel like

Still here if you want me
Look at what I can do with empty time
A lost love that likes to haunt me
It’s waiting around to meet me when I die

Death surrounds,
Protects the living
This is what you said and I agreed
Not to be so unforgiving

Just because your soul’s
On time and free
Because I’m here if you want me, my love,
Dancing on the Highway

But your sun still burns me eye
Oh why, oh why?
