Highway

We found us in mid-December. Love was sparking with ember. We wrote our story on the highway, Under stars that couldn’t look away. Your hand in mine, the world was new. We were fire in open view. And every mile just pulled us close. No end in sight, just endless road. High on the highway, high on the way. You and me, we flew through the grey. High on the highway, high on the way. Your love lit up the interstate. High highway, high on the way. Didn’t care what the signs would say. High on the highway, High on the way. We chased the dawn in hotel lights. Made promises in whispered nights. You sang off-key to every song. I fell for every note all along. But silence grew behind our wheels. You stared ahead, I missed the fields. The radio played what we couldn’t say. Love was there but lost its way. I tried to reach through passing days. But some things drift when hearts won’t stay. Hey, oh. High on the highway, high on the way. Our echoes in the wind remain. High on the highway, high on the way. The asphalt couldn’t hold the flame. High on the highway, high on the way. Still hear you in the turning lanes. High on the highway, High on the way. Now the roads don’t curve the same. Without your voice, it’s just a name. But I drive slow where we once flew. And hope the stars remember you. High on the highway, high on the way. One heart lost, one couldn’t stay. High on the highway, high on the way. Still chasing things we couldn’t say. On the highway, high on the way. If you’re out there, call my name. High on the highway, High on the way. Oh, we found us in Mid-December. Still writing roads that never end. High on the highway, High on the way.
