Subject(s): Cities; Hearts; Love; Travel; Urban Life; Journeys; Trips
The dark highway is lighted
With a thousand gleaming cars,
Yet I shall make my journeyings
Where there are only stars.
The highway ends at city gates
Where all the world goes through,
But my road seeks a quiet hearth
Where there is only you.
