The endless towers, a wall of gloomy pine
Kudzu creep along the branches
Tall grass along the road and blackberry vines
White crosses with names
And flowers
..
I go among the weeds and stalks
Dandelion seeds blow behind me
My legs bleed with cane thorns as I walk
I walk, I walk, the southern
Highway
..
Buzzards and redhawks fly today
My lonely heart beats with their wings
And my feet tread the ground that I can't fly away
Fly away from the eternal
Road
..
Oh, oh, the sky is blue right now
I pray for Florida lightning
That stabs from nowhere, down, down, down
And blackberry dreams fill my lonely
Eyes
..
Oh, oh, the sky is black right now
A Florida storm is coming
It's boiling straight from the south
To devour the brambles and birds
And trees
………………………….
My dream is to hear Natasha Khan or Patrick Wolf sing this song.
