Misty River The High Road lyrics

UP ON THE HIGH ROAD, LOOKIN' DOWN
THINKIN' HOW YOU LET ME DOWN
AND DEEP IN MY HEART I HEAR A SOUND
OF THE SONG THAT CARRIED ME AWAY.

WE WOULD COME HERE YEARS AGO
AND THE STARS WOULD SHINE & THE WIND WOULD BLOW
YOU'D LOOK IN MY EYES, AND I WOULD KNOW
THAT YOU WOULD CARRY ME AWAY.

LATE LAST WEEK IN THE MARKETPLACE
I HEARD YOUR VOICE AND I SAW YOUR FACE
BUT THEN YOU WERE GONE WITHOUT A TRACE
BUT YOU SURE DID CARRY ME AWAY.


NOW I PLAY A TUNE AND WATCH THE STARS
I HOPE THE WIND WILL CARRY YOU FAR
AND IF YOU HEAR ME WHEREVER YOU ARE
JUST LET IT CARRY YOU AWAY.

PLAY YOUR FIDDLE AND CARRY ME AWAY
TO ANOTHER LIFE IN ANOTHER DAY
WELL, HERE'S A LITTLE TUNE I ALWAYS PLAY
IT SURE DOES CARRY ME AWAY.
