[Verse 1]
Life's like a road that you travel on
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 the blues won't haunt you anymore
Where the brave are free and lovers soar
Come ride with me to the distant shore

[Pre-Chorus 1]
We won't hesitate
Break down the garden gate
There's not much time left today

[Chorus]
Life is a highway
I wanna ride it all night long
If you're going my way
I wanna drive it all night long

[Verse 2]
Through all these 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
Tennessee to those L.A. nights
San Anton to the Vegas lights
Knock me down, I'm back up again
You're in my blood, I'm not a lonely man
[Pre-Chorus 2]
There's no load I can't hold
Roads are rough, this I know
I'll be there when the lights comes in
Just tell them we're survivors

[Chorus]
Life is a highway
I wanna ride it all night long
If you're going my way
I wanna drive it all night long

[Bridge]
There was a distance between you and I
A misunderstanding once but now
We look it in the eye

[Instrumental Break]

[Refrain]
Ain't no load, I can't hold
Roads are rough, this I know
I'll be there when the light comes in
Tell 'em we're survivors

Life is a highway
I wanna ride it all night long
If you're going my way
I wanna drive it all night long
Life is a highway
I wanna ride it all night long
If you're going my way
I wanna drive it all night long
