"The Highway Knows" lyrics

"The Highway Knows"

Every traveler on life's road
Needs a companion
To ride along through the rain and snow
Across the desert canyon
Found a friend when you jumped in shotgun
A love to last until the journey's end

Like a river runnin' to the ocean blue
Like a million roads leading back to you
You're my destination, you're my last stop
And the highway knows I'm gonna love you
'Til wheels fall off

Just a road map and an old guitar
Thrown in the backseat
Following a shooting star
You flagged me down some backstreet
Like a dream when you jumped in shotgun
Now I don't want this highway to end

Like a river runnin' to the ocean blue
Like a million roads leading back to you
You're my destination, you're my last stop
And the highway knows I'm gonna love you
'Til wheels fall off

Ooh every road keeps rollin' back to you
Ooh and the highway knows I'm gonna love you

Every road, every road
Every road, every road
Every road, every road
Every road, every road

Like a river runnin' to the ocean blue
Like a million roads leading back to you
You're my destination, you're my last stop
And the highway knows I'm gonna love you
Like a lone wolf howls at the silver moon
Like a million stars shining down on you

You're my destination, you're the mountain top
And the highway knows I'm gonna love you
The highway knows I'm gonna love you
The highway knows
The highway knows
The highway knows I'm gonna love you
'Til the wheels fall off
