I lay alone at night and often think of you,
each minute seems an hour of wondering what you do,
I light a cigarette and turn the music loud,
the lights are flashing now, I'm on a crazy cloud.
I'm riding Highway 216,
everybody knows the way you're
turning on my dreams,
everybody knows I'm riding
Highway 216,
no questions why or where
you'll never have a care
because they slip away... into the day.
Forget me when I go, those were the words she said,
But still I see her face a-laughing in my head
It was a crazy game, the stakes were much too high,
the blackbird broke a wing, they say he'll fly.
