Lyrics:

HIGHWAY SONG
The gate was closing, the sun was folding
Her hand was waving me good-bye
My door held open, my shadow broken
A voice returned a short reply
Remember me to the highway signs
The colored lights and the highway lines
Remember me to my friends so kind
And tell them I am fine

The night had fallen, the moon was calling
A whip-poor-will sang out its song
There is no need for you to go
Like the seeds the wind would blow
It is best now that the time moves slow
You know someday she’ll know

But today is nearly over now
It’s nearly over now, it’s nearly gone
Tomorrow doesn’t matter now
‘Cause nothing matters now, except the dawn

The gate left open the sun had woken
The dew left footprints to my door
She walked in slowly her image holy
She knelt beside me on the floor
I remembered you to the highway signs
The colored lights and the highway lines
I said hello to your friends so kind
And told them you were fine
Chorus
