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 ev'ry darkened door Where blues won't haunt you anymore Where 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
[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
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 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 Just tell 'em we're survivors
[Chorus]
Gimme gimme gimme gimme yeah
[Chorus]
There was a distance between you and I (between you and I) A misunderstanding once But now we look it in the eye
Ooooo...Yeah!
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
[Chorus: (x3)] Life is a highway I wanna ride it all night long If you're going my way I wanna drive it all night long
