Song Description

Headed the wrong way on a one-way highway

Lyrics

HIGHWAY OF THE LOST
Driving down that road again
where it leads I long forgot
Rains been falling without end
so familiar, yet...I feel so lost
but I keep driving on no matter what the cost
the truth, It comes to me in stark reality
I know where I'm going...
Highway of the Lost

Wiper blades and radio
keeping time with my own heart
I know it down in my soul
Now it's time for a brand-new start
Straight ahead, suddenly
in amazing clarity
a billboard sign I see with a man upon a cross
In a flash of sympathy His eyes look right at me
The words say "Jesus Saves"
on the Highway of the Lost

Now I see the rain is gone
as teardrops fill my eyes
It's time to turn this car around
exit from this road of lies
In a blaze of clarity
His light is guiding
I know I've been set free
by that man upon a cross
and as I drive away from the sin of yesterday
the sign says "You're Leaving the Highway of the Lost"
