The Way

They made up their minds And they started packing They left before the sun came up that day An exit to eternal summer slacking But where were they going without ever knowing the way? They drank up the wine And they got to talking They now had more important things to say Then the car broke down, and they started walking But where were they going without ever knowing the way Anyone could see the road that they walked on was paved in gold And it's always summer, they'll never get cold They'll never get hungry, and 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 When the children woke up and they couldn't find them They'd left before the sun came up that day They just drove off and left it all behind them But where were they going without ever knowing the way? Anyone could see the road that they walked on was paved in gold And it's always summer, they'll never get cold They'll never get hungry, and 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 And anyone could see the road that they walked on was paved in gold And it's always summer, they'll never get cold They'll never get hungry, and 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
