Highlands

My heart's in the Highlands, gentle and fair

Honeysuckle blooming in the wildwood air

Bluebells blazing where the Aberdeen waters flow

Well my heart's in the Highlands

I'm gonna go there when I feel good enough to go

Windows were shakin' all night in my dreams

Everything is exactly the way that it seems

Woke up this morning and I looked at the same old page

Same of rat race

Life in the same of cage

My heart's in the Highlands wherever I roam

That's where I'll be when I get called home

The wind, it whispers to the buck-eyed trees in rhyme

Well my heart's in the Highlands

I can only get there one step at a time

I'm listening to Neil Young, and I turn up the sound

Someone's always yelling "Could you turn that down?"

Feel like I've been drifting

Drifting from scene to scene

I'm wondering what in the devil could it all possibly mean?

Insanity is smashing against my soul

You can say I was on anything but a roll

If I had a conscience, well, I just might blow my top

What would I do with one anyway

Maybe take it to the pawn shop

My heart's in the Highlands at the break of dawn

By the beautiful lake of the Black Swan

Big white clouds like chariots that swing down low

Well my heart‘s in the Highlands

It's only place left for me to go

I'm in Boston town, in some restaurant

I got no idea what I want

Oh maybe I do but I'm just really not sure

Well, the waitress comes over

Has nobody in the place but me and her

I think it must be a holiday, and nobody around

She studies me closely as I sit down

She got a pretty face and long white shiny legs

I said "Tell me what I want"

She says, “You want hard boiled eggs”

I say "Yeah, that's right: bring me some"

She just said "We ain't got any, you've picked up the wrong time to come”

Then she says, “I know you're an artist, draw a picture of me!"

I say, “I would if I could, but I don't do sketches from memory"

But she says, "I'm right here in front of you, or haven't you looked?"

I say, “Yes, I know, but I don't have my drawing book!”

Then she puts out a napkin in front of me

She says, “There you can do it on that”

I say, “Yes I could, but I don't know where my pencil is at!”

Well, she pulls one out from behind her ear

She says, “All right now, go ahead. I'm standing right here”

I make some lines then I show it to her so she can see

Well she pushes the napkin back

She said, "that don't look like a like a thing like me!”

*I said, "yes it does she, most certainly does"

She said, "You must be jokin'."

I said, "I wish I was!”

She said, “You don't read women authors, do you?”

Least that's what I think I heard her say

I said, "I've read a few but what would it matter anyway"

Well, my heart is in the Highlands with the horses and hounds

Way up in the border country, far from the towns

With the twang of the arrow and a snap of the bow

And my heart's in the Highlands

I can't see any other way go

Every day is the same out the door

I feel further away than ever before

Some lessons in life, it gets too late to learn

Well, I'm lost somewhere

I must have made a few bad turns

People in the park forgetting their troubles and woes

They're drinking and dancing, wearing bright-colored clothes

All the young men and all the young women looking so good

I'll trade places with anyone of them in a minute, if I only could

I'm crossing the street to get away from a mangy dog

I'm talking to myself in an endless monologue

I think what I need might be a full-length leather coat

Somebody just asked me If I've registered to vote

The sun is beginning to shine on me

But its not like the sun that used to be

The party's over

Every day there's less and less to say

I got new eyes

Everything looks so far away

My heart's in the Highlands at the break of day

Over the hills and far away

There's a way to get there and I'll figure it out somehow

But I'm there already in my mind

And that's good enough for now
