Lyrics The Jezabels

The Jezabels

Long Highway

You see this writing on the wall

Oh, angel, you see this curtain fall

Good times seem so far away

Just a memory, old and grey

And there was no one like you

You rip apart the clouds in all my days

Others all fade away

On this long highway

Mesmerising

Long highway

Paralysing

Long highway

And you may find your place to run to

In winter frosts, your bed to climb to

But I have seen down deep inside you

They won't love you quite like I do

Look around, something real

Touch something you can feel

I found my dreams were ordinary

Let me turn to sand

Still will be waiting for you

Still, it will be there

In the colour of rose in the sky

In the ever-steady glow of your eye

Let it all fade away

Long highway

Mesmerising

Long highway

Paralysing

I'm on my way

So, looking back

You with your hands on your face

Did I drift into your mind?

Did I find a place?

All that we had here,

Did it happen everyday?

Long highway

Terrorising

When I call your name

You stand before me

Hear me roar

Hear me roar
