Lyrics Keith Whitley

Keith Whitley

Heartbreak Highway

Palms were hot and sweaty

Hope my heart is ready

Here it goes nothing fast

Check the rear view mirror

Memory's getting clearer

I can't let it pass

Driving myself crazy I'm losing control

Looks like I'm headed for a rough and rocky road

Heartbreak highway

Fast lane to the blues

Each turn I take

Leads me back to you

And there's nothing I can do

Wrong way, going nowhere

I've already been there

Can't see through the rain

Truck stop coffee's bitter

Last night took forever

Can't sleep with the pain

I still see you with me every time I lay down

That leaves a burning bridge to turn my life around

Heartbreak highway

Fast lane to the blues

Each turn I take

Leads me back to you

And there's nothing I can do

Something's starting shaking and falling apart

If something's breaking up it's gotta be my heart

Heartbreak highway

Fast lane to the blues

Each turn I take

Leads me back to you

And there's nothing I can do

Heartbreak highway

Fast lane to the blues

Heartbreak highway

Leads me back to you

Heartbreak highway

Fast lane to the blues

Heartbreak highway

Leads me back to you
