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 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 hills
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
the roads are rough this i know
i’ll be there when the light comes in
just 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 hmm
life is a highway
i want to ride it all night long
gimme gimme gimme gimme yeah
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
oh
harmonica break
there ain’t no load that i can’t hold
road so rough this i know
i’ll be there when the light comes in
just tell ’em we’re survivors
life is a highway
i want to ride it all night long yeah yeah yeah yeah
if you’re going my way
i want to drive it all night long yeah yeah
gimme gimme gimme gimme yeah
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
gimme gimme gimme gimme yeah
life is a highway
i want to ride it all night long yeah yeah
if you’re going my way
i want to drive it all night long ooh
gimme gimme gimme gimme yeah
