Murray McLauchlan - Highways in the Sky lyrics

It was the year of 1946 The war was just a memory There was a young man Spending his last dollar Cheerfully That airplane didn't look too ready To tame the north country That was a dream That would scare the hell out of people Like you and me. He sees the highways in the sky Highways in the sky Other people just squint their eyes He sees the highways in the sky. He sees the highways in the sky. What makes a young man's dreams have wings While others fear to fall What makes him see a world so big And want to take it and make it small Take all of his money And take his whole life And gamble the whole damn thing What makes him want to get closer To hearing the songs that the angels sing He sees the highways in the sky Highways in the sky Other people just squint their eyes He sees the highways in the sky. He sees the highways in the sky. Now it's 1984 The old days have faded away There goes a jet bound for Honolulu With that old name on the tail Years of fighting rules And battling fools And thin-lipped government men Won't stop three hundred souls From reaching Honolulu Or that dream from playing over again He sees the highways in the sky Highways in the sky Other people just squint their eyes He sees the highways in the sky. He sees the highways in the sky.
