Changing Highways (1974) Lyrics

[Verse 1]
We're changing highways
In heavy traffic
See the lights turn
To something graphic
With my suitcase and my broom
I come in your room

[Verse 2]
Hello hello
Is that you stranger?
Is this our music
Up in your manger?
And is this your exit too?
We're changing highways

[Instrumental Break]

[Verse 1]
We're changing highways
In heavy traffic
See the lights turn
To something graphic
With my suitcase and my broom
I come in your room
[Outro]
We're changing highways

  • Use italics (<i>lyric</i>) and bold (<b>lyric</b>) to distinguish between different vocalists in the same song part
  • If you don’t understand a lyric, use [?]
