The Way

We made up their minds and they started packing We left before the sun came up that day An exit to eternal summer slacking But where were they going without ever knowing the way? We drank up the wine and they got to talking We now had more important things to say And when the car broke down they started walking Where were they going without ever knowing the way? Anyone could see the road that they walk on is paved in gold And it's always summer, they'll never get cold They'll never get hungry, they'll never get old and gray You can see their shadows wandering off somewhere They won't make it home but they really don't care They wanted the highway they're happier there today, today The children woke up and they couldn't find 'em We left before the sun came up that day We just drove off and left it all behind 'em But where were they going without ever knowing the way? Anyone could see the road that they walk on is paved in gold It's always summer, they'll never get cold They'll never get hungry, they'll never get old and gray You can see their shadows wandering off somewhere They won't make it home but they really don't care They wanted the highway, they're happier there today, today Anyone could see the road that they walk on is paved in gold It's always summer, they'll never get cold They'll never get hungry, they'll never get old and gray You can see their shadows wandering off somewhere They won't make it home but they really don't care They wanted the highway, they're happier there today, today
