The saddest eyes she wore So longing and forlorn That made me love you More and more The bluest heart she owns As she gets more and more alone As the deepest cello drones The oldest yard-cat sings Her mournful bellowing From branches in the trees The stillest star shines red With them bring havoc and death Upon the land they'll sweep The painful midnight cries When one leaves a world behind Leaves a world be, leaves a world behind And here in Half Moon Bay Hear the hum of the highway Hum of the high, hum of the highway Highway 1 Grey clouds, muted suns Down by the footbridge stream I am walking in a dream Wailing in my dreams Cuz winter-time was through I could not be there for you I couldn't care for you And hear the traffic come Down the old Highway 1 Down the Devil's sleighted run And nothing clears these stains Not the January rains Rising in the stream Down by the bay-leaf tree Our lonely bird eyes meet Lonely bird eyes, lonely bird eyes meet Under the blue moonbeams I am wandering in my dream Walking in my, wandering in a dream Highway 1 Grey clouds, muted suns Highway 1 Grey clouds, muted suns
