AS WE WALKED INTO A COLD NIGHT
TALKING BOUT OUR RECENT TALES
EVERY BREATH HUNG IN THE MOONLIGHT
IN VAPOR TRAILS

THEN WE TRIED SPEAKING HONESTLY
AND PULLED OFF A FEW MORE VEILS
EVEN THOSE WORDS SAT THERE FROZEN
IN VAPOR TRAILS

YOU AND I, JETLINERS IN THE SKY
TRAILING WHITE LINES WAY UP HIGH
MIGHT FEEL CONNECTED, YET EVERY TIME WE DO
IT DISAPPEARS INTO THE BLUE

YOU AND I, OUTLIERS IN THE SKY
WHO PASS EACH OTHER BY AND BY
SOMETIMES INTERFACE, BUT SEEMS LIKE WHEN WE DO
SOON ENOUGH IT FADES TO BLUE

KEPT ON WALKING THROUGH THE COLD NIGHT
AND GAZED ON THE FOG EXHALES,
ICY CLOUDS OF ALL OUR MEMORIES
IN VAPOR TRAILS

OUR VAPOR TRAILS
HAPPY TRAILS TO YOU

HIGHER ROAD

LIVING BY THE RIVER IT CAN TAKE A TOLL
PARTICULARLY WHEN THE WATER OVERFLOWS
BETTER GET A MOVE ON BEFORE MY SOLES GET WET

THINKING BOUT A SHAKE UP OF THE STATUS QUO
DON’T KNOW WHERE I’M GOING BUT I GOT TO GO
AND TAKING THE BEST SHOT TO NEVER HARBOR REGRET

THAT’S WHY I’M LOOKING AROUND FOR A HIGHER ROAD
HOPE IT LIVES UP TO THE THINGS I WAS TOLD
EVEN IF IT ISN’T PAVED WITH GOLD IT MIGHT
BRING SOME PEACE OF MIND

LIVING IN THE VALLEY IT CAN DRAG YA DOWN
PARTICULARLY IN A COUPLE LOWLAND TOWNS
BETTER GET A MOVE ON TO MAKE UP WASTED TIME

AND NOW I’M LOOKING AROUND FOR A HIGHER ROAD
HOPE IT LIVES UP TO THE THINGS I WAS SOLD
EVEN IF IT DOESN’T LIGHTEN THE LOAD IT MIGHT
BRING SOME PEACE OF MIND

ON A HIGHER ROAD, NOT A BETTER PLACE
THAT YOU CAN FIND YOURSELF ON ANY DAY
ON A HIGHER ROAD, IT’S THE KIND OF SPACE
TO FIND YOURSELF
