Neil Young Spirit Road Lyrics

Spirit Road Lyrics

There's a long highway in your mind

The spirit road that you must find

To get you home to peace again

Where you belong my love lost friend

When you're alone

You cheat yourself

You paint yourself in a
dark, dark place

You get your shoes

And get your hat

Get out
here while you still can

There's nothin' right that you can say

You
keep on talkin' anyway and everyone seems to turn on you

There's nothing
right that you can ever do

Spirit road

Spirit road

Spirit
road

Spirit road

Now you're on that long highway in your mind

The spirit road that you had to find

You're headed home to peace
again

Where you belong my love lost friend

You stop to eat

You start to drink

But you don't stop and you don't think

You
lost your keys

You're on your knees

You're on your back and lookin'
up in the trees

And the night swirls for a little girl

A speck of
dust in the giant world

There's a spirit road that you must find

A
long highway in your mind

Spirit road

Spirit road

Spirit
road

Spirit road

There's a long highway in your mind

The
spirit road that you must find

To get you home to peace again

Where
you belong my love lost friend

Don't feed that snake

That turns on
you

You starve it out, that's what you do

And it makes you lie

It makes you cheat

It steals your shoes and cuts your feet

The
snake keeps feeding through the night

You lose your soul without a
fight

There's nothin' right that you can say

You keep on talkin'
anyway

There's a long highway in your mind

The spirit road that you
must find

Peace again

Peace again

There's a long highway in
your mind

The spirit road that you must find

To get you home to
peace again

Where you belong my love lost friend

When you're
alone

You cheat yourself

You paint yourself in a dark, dark
place

Get your hat

Get your shoes

Get out here while you
still can still choose

Spirit road

Spirit road

Spirit
road

Spirit road

Spirit road

Spirit road

Spirit
road

Spirit road
