Lyrics

HIGHWAYS AND HEADWINDS
BY BRIAN BAGGS


HIGHWAYS AND HEADWINDS, SETTING ME FREE, SLOWING ME DOWN,
CHANGING MY MIND
LIFE'S LITTLE UPS AND DOWNS, I'M SEEING A PATTERN
EVERYTHING I DO SEEMS TO MATTER
I GUESS I WOULDN'T HAVE IT ANY OTHER WAY

LOVE'S BOUNTY OVERLOAD, FOLLOWED BY DROUGHT, FROM OUTSIDE SOURCES,
OTHERS SELF IMPOSED
WAS I TOO STINGY FROM THE START
WHY PUT A GOVERNOR ON MY HEART
WASN'T I SAVING IT JUST FOR YOU

HIGHWAYS AND HEADWINDS, BEING TOSSED TO AND FRO
HIGHWAYS AND HEADWINDS, THEY'RE JUST FORKS IN THE ROAD
HIGHWAYS AND HEADWINDS, THAT'S JUST THE WAY IT GOES

GIVE AND TAKE, PUSHING AND PULLING, WANTING MORE,
NEEDING LESS
THE LIFE I'M LIVING'S FULL OF YIN AND YANG
I GUESS IT'S UP TO ME TO TAKE THE BLAME
WHILE I'M IN ONE PHASE, I'M MISSING THE OTHER

JUST LIKE ME AND YOU, ONE DREAMER, ONE PRACTICAL, ONE SELFESS,
ONE GENEROUS, ONE OLD AND ONE YOUNG
I THOUGHT LOVE WOULD BRIDGE THE GAP
I THOUGHT OPPOSITES ATTRACT
AFTER ALL THIS TIME, I HAVEN'T A CLUE

HIGHWAYS AND HEADWINDS, BEING TOSSED TO AND FRO
HIGHWAYS AND HEADWINDS, THEY'RE JUST FORKS IN THE ROAD
HIGHWAYS AND HEADWINDS, THAT'S JUST THE WAY IT GOES
