Life's like a road that you travel on,
When there's one day here and the next day gone.
Sometimes you bend, sometimes you stand,
Sometimes you turn your back to the wind.
There's a world outside every darkened door
Where blues won't haunt you anymore.
Where the brave are free and lovers soar,
Come ride with me to the distant shore.
We won't hesitate to break down the garden gate,
There's not much time left today.
Life is a highway,
I want to ride it all night long.
If you're going my way,
I want to drive it all night long.
Through all the cities and all these towns,
It's in my blood and it's all around.
I love you now like I loved you then,
This is the road and these are the hands.
From Mozambique to those Memphis nights.
The Khyber pass to Vancouver's lights.
Knock me down, get back up again,
You're in my blood I'm not a lonely man.
There's no load I can't hold
Road so rough this I know.
I'll be there when the light comes in,
Tell 'em we're survivors.
Life is a highway,
I want to ride it all night long.
If you're going my way,
I want to drive it all night long.
Life is a highway,
I want to ride it all night long.
If you're going my way,
I want to drive it all night long.
There was a distance between you and I.
A misunderstanding once but now
We look it in the eye.
There's no load I can't hold.
Road so rough this I know.
I'll be there when the light comes in,
Tell 'em we're survivors.
Life is a highway,
I want to ride it all night long.
If you're going my way,
I want to drive it all night long.
