There's fire in the canyon   Rain on the plain   And an eerie kind of sadness   On the highway today   Was it driving together   That drove us apart   Or did we change direction   Chasing arrows and hearts      We've been wandering alone such a long time   Lose our way as we go town to town   Believe us to be born into a path straight and narrow   On every crooked road we travel down      And I'm checking out the road signs   Highway hotels   And their air-conditioned cable-ready cold padded cells   And we read them like stories   In trash magazines   We ain't really sure what it means      We've been wandering alone such a long time   Lose our way as we go town to town   Believe us to be born into a path straight and narrow   On every crooked road we travel down      Well I'll ride this motorway   For a thousand miles a day   Til the road runs out of blacktop   Or I will this world away   And each town is steeped in rain   And I know each one by name   Cause this road is wrapped around me   And I wear it like a chain      We've been wandering alone such a long time   Lose our way as we go town to town   Believe us to be born into a path straight and narrow   On every crooked road we travel down   Believe us to be born into a path straight and narrow   On every crooked road we travel down
