I'm sitting down by the highway
Down by that highway side
Everybody's going somewhere
Riding just as fast as they can ride
I guess they got a lot to do
Before they can rest assured their lives are justified
I need a guide for me, baby He can let me slide
I've been up and down this highway Far as my eyes can see
No matter how fast I run I can never seem to get away from me
No matter where I am
I can't help thinking I'm just a day away
from where I want to be
Now I'm running home, baby
Like a river to the sea Baby,
if you can see me
Out across this wilderness There's just the one thing
I was hoping you might guess Baby,
you can free me
All in the power of your sweet tenderness
I can see it in your eyes
You got those bright baby blues
You're not sure what you've got to gain
But you don't like to lose
You watch yourself from the sidelines Like your life was a game
You don't mind playing To keep yourself amused
I don't mean to be cruel,
baby But you're looking confused
Baby, if you can hear me
Turn down your radio
There's just the one thing I want
you to know When you've been near me
I've felt the love
stirring in my soul
But it's so hard to combine
That feeling of peace
And once this friend of mine said to me
Close your
eyes
And try a few of these
I thought I was flying like a bird So far above my sorrow
But when I looked down I was standing on my knees
Now I need someone to help me Someone to help me,
please
Baby, if you need me Like I know I need you
There's just the one thing I'll ask you to do Take
my hand and lead me To the hole in your garden wall
And pull me through
Pull me through
