Townes Van Zandt - Highway Kind Lyrics

The most beautiful song in the universe written by the best singer songwriter that ever lived. 😍

This song should be played on Walking Dead. This song is perfectly depicts Daryl Dixon, especially when he lost Beth <3

Semi bruce, i feel that way as welll
Leaves u wanting more,... same time.. leaves you feelin like a loved one has passed....
it is( 2 me) ACCEPTAANCE✌🏿💯%🎶& accepting regret as an
Outcome....... ( nno one is round wen i blast tvz. My time🥺🎶🤙🏻

Sometimes I don’t hear Townes, and sometimes my ears know how to sound

Spiritual resusatacion.....
SometimesI CANT LET MYSELF
LIVE) dead envy( follow circle down
I'll c ya

purity ..

Wow, yeah know?

nothin hits me like townes

A song for god

this song really fucks me up

Overwhelming and devastating, sinks my mood every time. Yet I still find it so beautiful

who the hell would dislike this

don't listen to TVZ if you're depressed.....

what other time is there?

I find Townes cathartic. Mainly.

Its the only time to listen...its not depression, its life!

Absolutely fucking brilliant.

this is one of the ones that you just can't listen to just once. Or twice, three, four... ten times in a row. Just can't​stop listening to it.

Mic Mac im mak( as u) and i agree
Mudd/gold/ ....( devil/dwn georgia
W/out any repeated chorus or
"Rythmic vocals....'cept too keep
Listenin long after
"SO Amigos LAY YOUR RAZORS
( raisers) DOWN ( quite a bit more
Soul& actuall experience
Than sub home sick blues
( only other that starts& dont
Double back) and i state that as
Iv heard comparisons....ASSHOLE
THEY ALL STINK,never thought
Of good music as folk music
It FITS THE KEY TOO YOU🎶

The sort of song that give one an idea for a song, or poem...

Newyearsday 2017,Townes been gone For 20 years but his music keeps touching me

Gelukkig Nieuwjaar, Jan.

Absolutely hopeless...

I know I'm Old;Townes has been Dead a while now-somehow Guy knew that's how it would be...and then Guy was old=his #'s up-I friggin' almost knew the day he'd die! I believe he did deep inside...119,130 views of this song, and 539 liked it;4 didn't like-Jeeze I remember Guy's retort to my Ex's comment Townes is great but so depressing!"---Guy"Shit, he's not depressing he's suicidal!" I laughed then... but now I get it too-that's why Guy got it;why doesn't anyone else get it!? Cuz When you're that real it's just time before you break!

life is sometimes a long suicide

Townes was a great story teller and also had a fantastic understanding of the human condition but I don't think he was ever in cahoots with Guy Clark over his own "suicide".... wait what?

James Land you'll be (the) in blessed company, fren we're
bound too leave this dark behind
C u wen i do( not in i c u)🎶❤️♾

No preservatives in the truth

Only days that start w/mournin&
End in"Y"beautiful views arent missed till they're a bunch of
Shitty houses for shittier people
Built by my peers& i& lord, id seen
"Forest fer the trees"
As its said" the time u get it....
You're outta here( free bird like🤙🏻
🧜🏿‍♀️❤️rest in peace pops❤️🎶♾

great song, I really like it even more when Lyle sings it

I´m sitting here in front of my screen for nearly 3 hours now, listening to this hauntingly beautiful songs... and i just can´t get over the fact that Townes van Zandt is just pure perfection!

I saw him in nashville years ago: Townes just checkin out a new band at a club. He had longish black hair, eyes burnin like coals. He wore a long black overcoat with cheap wine in a pocket; he never bought expensive booze and spritzers the audience drank. The writer of such georgeous songs, intense, quiet

sometimes two minutes are enough.

Whoever you are, you get it.

edgaristtod 🙈😿💯%❤️🎶

Christ man....fucking poetry.
I just wish more people could appreciate art like this, but then again maybe that's what makes it beautiful

I love that bass line

Gives me chills. Great song.

+gmjunky87 Gives me chills, goosebumps and sometimes tears.Can't say just what this guy's songs do for me but ......Much Happiness!!!!!!!!.

Powerful song.

Townes was a paradox

He always end his songs with the most powerful verse

+Semibrucelee Absolutely.

thank you, townes.

The master

Love thejakeskesbrakes coment on Pearl Jam playing this song, I believe thy could do  a very good version.

My daddy died on my birsthady, May 20th, 2013. I am his "junior"!! He never knew Townes music...I did....but I wish his ghost would stop singing this song in my right ear!!!! I love him and miss him..but damn!!!!

About as it gets right here!

Sigo finzament'ae fundagos
inue che ses ispentumada?
Ses tue chi m'abbisonzas.
No hapo mai intesu su lumene tou.
Lassa chi ispere 'e nos biere paris,
si no ad'a abbarrare gai e tottu.
Hapo a chircare sos chi ischin inue istas,
Hapo aere s'oriolu 'e t'agattare
in cada logu chi hapo connottu,
m'hapo a preguntare proite no ses cun megus.

Translation

Duncas, no soe cunbinchidu de sar beridades,
beru est chi su coro meu ischit seberare.
Sas ancas mi giughen dae sa chi cherzo,
sa oghe resurtat ae s'inde pesare.
Birgonza chi no est bastante,
desegu chena isegu.

Sas dies mias paren camineras,
lompen e dan despedida,
ae su chi lasso no dao contu,
su chi mi dechet est sa tuccada.
Su sole rezzidi in sas pischinas
cale percolu de su trighinu
chi pighit in su notte
e no iscampulat dae chelu.
Su tempus in pinna 'e sos elighes
ispartu po nde gosare frina,
inie mi paso de bonu accattu,
fatto meriagu e mi tenzo contu.
Medal bortas mi cretto,
medal bortas no intendo.
Medal bortas mi c'abbarat
sa bidea chi mi m'at trobbidu.

sometimes the shape l'm in won't let me leave

Pour the sun upon the ground , stand to throw a shadow .

literally, dinkleberger.

yes i always enjoyed that verse, I think hes talking about just accepting lost love
Its been said TVZ had a thing with guy clarks wife.
Nothing sexual but they were like soul mates he once said

i love townes van zandt.

yee of little feeling

literally?

This song can literally squeeze your heart dry.

Good ol' Texas music for you! Well Played

The emotions in this song are overwhelming, and expressed in a little over two minutes. Not a note or a word out of place...like a Chopin prelude or a Bach fugue in its perfection. I'm awestruck.

A good candidate for the saddest song ever written. Killer.

I just heard this song tonight and I think it's my favorite. I've been thinking about time a lot recently and it's like this song just dipped a cold finger into those thoughts

deuce2650 may i borrow term
" ...a cold finger,into those..."
I need more of" intelligent folks w/verbage, as w/the attempted sacking of sacristy,save be this
Guy's portfolio, in& around me
Thank u, for allowing me a monent
Of clarity( tvz="rainman" sevant st8

@midnight1963 Yes this verse is real writing, maybe my favorite of Townes'. He was able to put into words something that nearly everyone on Earth feels. A rare thing.

@wheelmanstan lyle couldn't hold townes @#$@

lyle lovetts veriosn will make you cry

Thank you for posting this, Tankard1990.

Glad to have heard of Townes and his music same as Hank and Keith Whitley all leaving us too soon.

my favorite verse ... (i think of it so often)
"your the only one i want and i've never heard your name, let's hope we meet someday ... if we don't it's all the same ... and i'll meet the ones between us and be thinking 'bout you ... and all the places i have been ... and why you were not there."

simply profound and overwhelming

Can't get enough

midnight1963 you aint the only,
Fren...😿

Its addicting like sorrow, st8 razor@
