They say it's a lost highway
They must be right
'Cause I've been driving for years
And it's just beyond my sight
And I am too far gone to be turning around
So I just look ahead and drive
I remember the way it always made me feel
When David Allen sang The Ride

It takes you up, it takes you down
The road don't end it just goes around
It makes you laugh, it makes you cry
It makes you live and die
And what I have lost, what I have gained
Is all to none, it's still the same
I will drive until I find
Until I find that lost highway

Many others have traveled this road
I try to steer clear
Of all the wreckage and the shattered souls
Forgotten in the years
And the ghosts that walk on the side of the road
Say to turn your car around
One day, son, you'll be waking with us
Searching for what can't be found

It takes you up, it takes you down
The road don't end it just goes around
It makes you laugh, it makes you cry
It makes you live and die
And what I have lost, what I have gained
Is all to none, it's still the same
I will drive until I find
Until I find that lost highway

What I have lost, what I have gained
Is all to none, but still the same
I will drive until I find
Until I find that lost highway
