dreams of blue johanna - dave steel and the roadside prophets lyrics

they said she was sixteen but i just couldn’t tell
she saw straight through me at a glance
in the tropical heat as the tide rose and fell
and our people swore and drank and danced
i was travelling of course, just resting my horse
sitting back in the sun for a while
she said down in the south i hear them calling for you
and i’d like to feel the cold for myself

and all the way down the east coast
she sang highway sixty*one
we saw the hills of blue johanna shine in the morning sun

we went south in july, it got colder and coldеr
she seemed to really comе alive
she would laugh she would cry and she sang all the time
her eyes as bright as southern stars

and on the beach near the apostles
she went dancing in the spray
and the dreams of blue johanna always have their way

we camped on the ridge above the aire river bridge
up there you can see a thousand miles
when i woke in the dawn she was gone from my side
i walked towards the ocean wall
a storm it was blowing across the great southern ocean
she lifted her wings to the wind
like a seabird she flew to the heart of the storm
and the dreams do not fly back again
now i sit on the clifftop
and i watch the flowing sky
and the dreams of blue johanna they go flowing by

- dave steel and the roadside prophets lyrics
