Songtexte Your Bright Baby Blues (Remastered) - Live - Jackson Browne , The Eagles

I'm a-sittin' down by the highway, down by that highway side
Everybody's going somewhere, ridin' just as fast as they can ride
I guess they got a lot to do, before they
Can rest assured their lives are justified
Pray to God for me, baby, He can let me slide

'Cause I've been up and down this highway far as my eyes can see
No matter how fast I run, I can never seem to get away from me
No matter where I am, I can't help thinkin'
I'm just a day away from where I wanna be
Now I'm runnin' home, baby, like a river to the sea

Baby, if you can see me out across this wilderness
There's just one thing I was hopin' you would guess
Baby, you can free me all in the power of your sweet tenderness

You're real bright, baby, you got those bright baby blues
It's too much you'd imagine you can gain
Not enough you're sure that you can lose
If you ever stop wonderin' what you're livin' for, you'll
Have to think of a whole new question to keep yourself amused
I don't mean to be cruel, baby, but you're lookin' confused

Baby, if you can hear me, turn down your radio
There's just one thing I want you to know
When you've been near me, I felt the love stirrin' in my soul

It's so hard to come by that feeling of peace
A friend of mine said to me, "Close your eyes
Open your mouth and try a few of these"
I thought I was flyin' like a bird so far above my sorrow
But when I looked down I was standin' on my knees
Now I need someone to help me, someone to help me, please

Baby, if you need me like I know I need you
There's just one thing I'll ask you to do
Take my hand and lead me to the hole in
Your garden wall and pull me through
Pull me through
