The sun is setting low, painting skies with gold
Memories of us, they're the stories we've told
Laughter on the sand, we made the moments last
But summer's gone too fast, now it's part of our past

The road is long, but my heart is strong
Every mile I drive, it brings me closer to where I belong

Who knew, I am taking the highway back to you
Time with you flew and my love grew
Now I am taking the highway back to you
'Cause this feeling is so true and new

The nights we spent under stars, sharing our dreams
Now they're flashing in my mind, like movie scenes
Your smile, your touch, it’s all I can see
As the miles fade away, you're the light guiding me

The road is long, but my heart is strong
Every mile I drive, it brings me closer to where I belong

Who knew, I am taking the highway back to you
Time with you flew and my love grew
Now I am taking the highway back to you
'Cause this feeling is so true and new

I'll cross every state line, every mountain, every mile
Just to see that look on your face, that ever-shining smile
The stars above are guiding me, like the night we kissed
I never knew love like this would be something I'd miss

The wind in my hair, the music in the air
Every song on the radio, it’s like you're right there
I’m counting the minutes, till I see your face
My heart’s on the highway, in a fast-paced race

Who knew, I am taking the highway back to you
Time with you flew and my love grew
Now I am taking the highway back to you
'Cause this feeling is so true and new

The road goes on forever, but I know it's worth the ride
I’ll be pulling up to your door, with my heart open wide
Who knew, who knew, that I'd be driving back to you
'Cause this love is so true and new
So here I come, love, driving through the night
With you in my heart, everything feels so right
Who knew, I’d be taking the highway back to you
The summer’s end, but our story’s just begun anew...

Who knew, who knew, that I'd be driving back to you
'Cause this love is so true and new
So here I come, love, driving through the night
With you in my heart, everything feels so right
Who knew, I’d be taking the highway back to you

Who knew, who knew, that I'd be driving back to you
'Cause this love is so true and new
So here I come, love, driving through the night
With you in my heart, everything feels so right
Who knew, I’d be taking the highway back to you
The summer’s end, but our story’s just begun anew...
