Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Way outta town on some midnight highway
Headed nowhere, just driving by myself
The night was cold, wind was blowin'
Me, I felt like I was someone else
[Verse 2]
I was achin', I was alone
No destination, so far away from home
Suddenly I find myself callin' to the heavens above
Please send me someone to love
[Verse 3]
Which way to happiness? Over the mountain
Which way to freedom? Just across the sea
Lord, I've been searching for what seems like forever now
Which way to happiness for someone like me?
[Verse 4]
Woo
Yeah
Wow, wow, wow
[Verse 5]
It seems like I spend my whole life runnin'
Runnin' away from what I can be
Down some endless road just south of nowhere
Always movin' but never really free
[Verse 6]
I had a dream, I said a prayer
Just like the answer, you standin' there
Like neon sign that was fifteen stories tall
I could hear the angels call
[Verse 7]
This way to happiness, the train is leavin'
Over the mountain and the sea
The highway to freedom is when you start believin'
This way to happiness, you and me
[Verse 8]
Well, I've rolled this rig from coast to coast
I've seen a lot, I've done more than most
I was like a sailor lost at sea
When like an angel from above, you came down and rescued me
[Verse 9]
This way to happiness, the train is leavin'
Over the mountain, down to the sea
The highway to freedom is when you start believin'
This way to happiness, for you and me
[Verse 10]
This way to happiness
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
Alright
This way to happiness
Yeah, yeah, yeah
Alright
I got to tell ya
This way to happiness
