You never really know where you're going
Even when you say that you do
Some days you're on a full tank
Sometimes you're running on fumes
Heartbreak, mistakes, leave you sitting there on the shoulder
That rear view's got you saying that it's over
All you dead-end boys
All you break down girls
Thinking you're all out of pavement
Like it's the end of the world
All you burn out believers
All you spinning your wheels
Like a get-nowhere wing and a prayer
I know just how you feel
But it's the stars that make the night
It's the low that makes the high
It's the song that makes you cry
It's the road that makes the ride
That makes the ride
That hand out the window feeling
Feeling like you're flying away
That earth there on the horizon
Blue sky, sunshine on your face
Might be hard to see it through the tears
But you still got a lot of good in your good years
All you dead-end boys
All you break down girls
Thinking you're all out of pavement
Like it's the end of the world
All you burn out believers
All you spinning your wheels
Like a get-nowhere wing and a prayer
I know just how you feel
But it's the stars that make the night
It's the low that makes the high
It's the song that makes you cry
It's the road that makes the ride
It's the road that makes the ride
All you dead-end boys
All you break down girls
Thinking you're all out of pavement
Like it's the end of the world
All you burn out believers
All you spinning your wheels
Like a get-nowhere wing and a prayer
I know just how you feel
But it's the stars that make the night
It's the low that makes the high
It's the love that makes the life
It's the road that makes the ride
The road that makes the ride
It's the road that makes the ride
Oh, it makes the ride
