Red lights are flashing on a highway - I wonder if we're gonna ever get home
I wonder if we're gonna ever get home tonight
Everywhere the water's getting rough - Your best intentions may not be enough
I wonder if we're gonna ever get home tonight
But if you break down, I'll drive out and find you
If you forget my love, I'll try to remind you
I'll stay by you when it don't come easy, When it don't come easy
I don't know nothing except change will come - Year after year what we do is undone
Time gets moving from a crawl to a run - I wonder if we're gonna ever get home
You're out there walking down a highway - And all of the signs got blown away
Sometimes you wonder if you're walking in the wrong direction
But if you break down, I'll drive out and find you
If you forget my love, I'll try to remind you
I'll stay by you when it don't come easy, When it don't come easy
So many things that I've had before - They don't matter to me now
Tonight I cry for the love that I've lost - And the love I've never found
And when the last bird falls
- and the last siren sounds
Someone will say what's been said before - It's only love that we're looking for
But if you break down, I'll drive out and find you
If you forget my love, I'll try to remind you
I'll stay by you when it don't come easy, When it don't come easy
(REPEAT CHORUS)
