lyrics

Maybe it's the dark, maybe it's the city
Maybe it's the way I can not get out
I am lost on God's great highway
I should have followed his words closer

My name's Katherine, I come from Kentucky
I Loved a man who would not love me

His eyes and arms wandered like streams
And they wandered themselves away from me
Women with which I could not compete
Ivory skin and emerald eyes
She could have her choice of men
But I, could never love again
Was the woman who took him from me

The Preacher's tongue cast him out
And I followed like a hopeless shadow
It was in those city lights I was lost
Needles became my road back home
To memories, times long ago
So I dream a highway to you

Skin is lost, faith is burning out
I'm rushing, I'm rushing
And lost on God's great highway

My name's Katherine, I come from Kentucky
I loved a man who would not love me
