Take the highway   Lord knows I'll be gone too long   What a sad day, yeah   One day you'll turn around and I'll be gone   And the time has finally come    For me to pack my bags and walk away   To be safe...      I'll be back someday   But darlin, please don't wait for me too long   This is one place I can't stay   Memories of your love still lingers on   And the time has finally come   For me to pack my bags and walk away   To be safe...      I'll be back someday   But darlin, please don't wait for me too long   This is one place I can't stay   Memories of your love still lingers on   And the time has finally come   For me to pack my bags and walk away   To be safe...      Take the highway   Take the highway   Take the highway   And the time has finally come   For me to pack my bags and walk away   To be safe
