Lost Highway – Gerry Rafferty

I saw the Operation Desert Storm
People walking down a lost highway
While they were dying on my TV screen
I watching it from far away

All of us, look at all of us
Living down under the law
Men dream while ages pass away

They ran the words that were set in stone
When they needed shelter from the storm
Then the news came from a million miles away
A simple word of love was born, yeah

All of us, look at all of us
Living down under the Lord
Men dream while ages pass away
And time goes by
The years fly away
Then some comets move across the sky
The world stands still
We still kill each other
A truth that’s in the moment never dies

I dreamed of operation desert storm
I was walking down a lost highway
People dying on a TV screen
I was watching it from far away

All of us, look at all of us
Living down under the law
Men dream while ages pass away
And time goes by
The years fly away
Then some comets move across the sky
The world stands still
We still kill each other
A truth that’s in the moment never dies

Lost highway
Lost highway, highway
Lost highway
