Lyrics:
(Words and Music by Joan Baez)
When the mist rolls in on Highway One
Like a curtain to the day
A thousand silhouettes hold out their thumbs
And I
the corners of my eye
Fool me into thinkin' my baby's passin' by
Intersection lost my direction and
I don't know which way to go
You're the only one I've been
are ringing, they hear the sound
A girl with cotton in her ears
Is shielded from the bells' effect
As if by hidden signal
The people turn to face
the empire, now as then,
We don't doubt, we don't take direction,
Lucretia, my reflection, dance the ghost with me
We look hard
We look through
We look
Didn't I say?
Didn't you say?
Didn't we say?
Didn't who say?
Didn't you say you were off to China?
Fancy meeting you here!
Yes, and didn't
Or take offense by this
Decision i loved working with you
Again you're a brilliant musician
Songwriter and I have the utmost respect for
You on top of all
You well invested like Jews, nigga
I'll be at these wars, I still be living by rules
So when I run into dudes
You know we're thumping in mood
And you're gonna stick to it
You should'na promised
If you wasn't gonna do it
You saw me and ran
In another direction
I'll teach you to play
With my
Seventy-one and so alone
When I met Susanne
I was trying to go it solo
With someone else's band
She came up to me later
And I took her by the hand
And I
We'll wander off through the dead of night
Past wastelands of shattered souls
Warm by my firelight
I peer into the darkness alone
As the Indian
wait to long.
I can feel that it's coming on strong,
The first cold wind of winter is flapping in my clothes
Showing me the way with the direction
What's wrong with the world, mama
People livin' like they ain't got no mamas
I think the whole world's addicted to the drama
Only attracted
and somewhere you lie,
Oh, I wish I could find you
Oh I'm lost by the river
My clothes are in tatters
My face scarred by branches
I shiver with cold,
No, I
you want me to do
To do for you to see you through?
For this is all a dream we dreamed
One afternoon long ago
Walk out of any doorway
Feel your
And the stars look down
Was it something I said
And the stars look down
Like the rat in a maze who says
"Watch me choose my own direction"
Are you under
gets worse, start making a reverse
I pay You no attention, lose my direction, all I chase is vanity
I forget I've been forgiven, your love I been
With a voice, telling you the bullet's direction
I'm talking murder, but that's another section
I need to explain by keeping my composure
There's no
the strip club on the weekends
Acting stupid, getting drunk with my best friends
I couldn't wait for the summer and the Warped Tour
I remember it's the first
Waiting by the window
Staring at my shadow
Not believing what I?d seen
Touching but not feeling
And wondering what I was dealing
And not knowing
Waiting by the window
Staring at my shadow
Not believing what I'd seen
Touching but not feeling
And wondering what I was dealing
And not knowing
As I was walkin' down rub-a-dub square
Not a chill to the window but a little to the air
From another direction she was calling my eye
It could be
cway from everyone
The sun could sleep for months
Some people come and go
I remain forever
Blinding lights in the wrong direction
No luck with my
and down in the wrong direction
Wait, we all hear the crying out
We all have a choice to make
We've got this turned around in the wrong direction
I see
for meaning
Wandering around with no direction
I'd rush to take that next big step
To make it that much more ahead
I went for the horizon
And I
