Highway of light Lights the way Into the night Puts all flesh Of human spirit To rest The clamour and the clang The bells we rang The sound of wheels I got a fresh set of ears And they ain't listening Oh no But soon it all appears in vain Even the rain It will stop My eyes are black My jealous drug And I feel nothing No more Headlights pan and drape the wall Darkness that surrounded all We chase the highway on and on To light the highway as our own My highway of light Deliver me To the night That we might sleep And disappear No one may ever Find us here An endless string of lights Meanders through the night Through houses with gaping doors Where no one's living any more Highway of light Lights the way Into the night Puts all flesh Of human spirit To rest
