THE LAST HIGHWAY

I always had this simple plan
simple pleasures of a simple man
but it's hard when they're far
and it's hard when they're few
another stony mile where nothing feels new

It's something I learned to live with
Being on this road, as long as I've looked for it
And those who fell by the wayside are still along for the ride
as I drive alone and I search for the light

High beams become one single ray
They turn this street to the last highway
white lines, one thousand miles
I'm coming home on the last highway
the night doesn’t have to be dark
Your fire wasted in just one spark
I wanna hear you say
that this is the day
let's get away
on the last highway

You can call me nostalgic
then again that's not quite the word for it
but I know what I want
and I know what I like
tonight I'm on the move
I ain't hiding from the fight

High beams become one single ray
They turn this street to the last highway
white lines, one thousand miles
I'm coming home on the last highway
the night doesn’t have to be dark
Your fire wasted in just one spark
I wanna hear you say
that this is the day
let's get away
on the last highway

city lights (left behind)
I won't stay (I won't stay)
I am gone (I'll be gone)
on that last highway

High beams become one single ray
They turn this street to the last highway
white lines, one thousand miles
I'm coming home on the last highway
the night doesn’t have to be dark
Your fire wasted in just one spark
I wanna hear you say
that this is the day
let's get away
on the last highway
