road so rough this i know

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

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

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 

There was a distance between you and I (between you and I)
A misunderstanding once
But now we look it in the eye

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  
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 

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