Lyrics & Translation

[English]

Spun around your side for so long

Thought maybe time would catch on

Spun around your side for so long

Thought maybe time would catch on

Night falls and it, it rains and I wake up alone

Get high, but it won't last, I'm still alone

Is there a highway? (Highway)

Is there a highway to your heart?

Is there a highway? (Highway)

Is there a highway to your heart?

...

And it hurts your heart's not ready

Wanna know, wanna know

Will our love always stay freewheeling?

No-no-no, no-no-no

Night falls and it, it rains and I wake up alone

Get high but it won't last, I'm still alone

Is there a highway? (Highway)

Is there a highway to your heart?

Is there a highway? (Highway)

Is there a highway to your heart?

...

Spun around your side for so long

Thought maybe time would catch on

Spun around your side for so long

Must have read the signs all wrong
