"Where Is the Highway Tonight?" karya Neil Young adalah lagu yang menyayat hati yang meratap tentang kehilangan cinta dan kerinduan akan masa lalu. Dihantui oleh ingatan tentang kekasih yang telah pergi, narator mengembara dalam kesepian, mencari penghiburan dari jalan raya yang dulu pernah mereka lalui bersama. Gitar akustik Young yang khas menciptakan suasana yang merenung, sementara liriknya yang jujur mengungkapkan kerinduan mendalam untuk momen-momen yang telah lama berlalu.
Where Is the Highway Tonight? Lyrics
Neil Young
I would be feelin' so low
She'd have a new place to go
She'd take me in her arms
And show me all her charms
Until my troubles were gone.
Then when I left her behind
Never a tear could I find
Just a haunting melody
Comin' back to me
Where is the highway tonight?
Where is the highway tonight?
Where are those old days
and crazy nights?
Now the house is
all quiet and still
Coyote howls on the hill
How far did I go
Before we said hello
Where is the highway tonight?
Darlin', you'll always be mine
I'll never treat you unkind
But a haunting melody
Keeps comin' back to me
Where is the highway tonight?
Where is the highway tonight?
Where are those old days
and crazy nights?
A haunting melody
Keeps comin' back to me
Where is the highway tonight?
She'd have a new place to go
She'd take me in her arms
And show me all her charms
Until my troubles were gone.
Then when I left her behind
Never a tear could I find
Just a haunting melody
Comin' back to me
Where is the highway tonight?
Where is the highway tonight?
Where are those old days
and crazy nights?
Now the house is
all quiet and still
Coyote howls on the hill
How far did I go
Before we said hello
Where is the highway tonight?
Darlin', you'll always be mine
I'll never treat you unkind
But a haunting melody
Keeps comin' back to me
Where is the highway tonight?
Where is the highway tonight?
Where are those old days
and crazy nights?
A haunting melody
Keeps comin' back to me
Where is the highway tonight?
