[Куплет 1] We left the county line at half past ten With a paper map and five good friends Milo called the next town by its old name June kept score of every license plate game At the fruit stand, we bought peaches by the pound Then took the road the truckers never found It curled through hills where the mile signs quit And every wrong turn somehow fit [Алдынғы қайырма] You said, “we’ve got nowhere we have to be” And the whole car answered, “that’s the key” [Қайырма] Take the lost highway, let it carry us on Past the last little town till the night turns long We’ve got every mile and a song to share And a sky full of sparks in the warm night air If the morning finds us a hundred miles away We’ll still be laughing at the things we said today Take the lost highway, wherever it goes With my friends beside me and the whole world open [Куплет 2] We sang old school tunes and made up the rest Took turns at the wheel, took turns being best Nate knew the names of the rivers we crossed Tess drew a compass on the back of a map we’d lost At a roadside overlook, the engine went still We watched one bright satellite slip over the hill Nobody checked how far we had to go We had all night and the radio low [Алдынғы қайырма] You said, “remember this when we’re back in town” We laughed like the stars might write it down [Қайырма] Take the lost highway, let it carry us on Past the last little town till the night turns long We’ve got every mile and a song to share And a sky full of sparks in the warm night air If the morning finds us a hundred miles away We’ll still be laughing at the things we said today Take the lost highway, wherever it goes With my friends beside me and the whole world open [Көпір] No grand plan, no finish-line speech Just a dashboard compass and a hill within reach And all those voices, joining one by one Till the road felt wide enough for everyone [Final chorus] Take the lost highway, let it carry us on Past the last little town till the night turns long We’ve got every mile and a song to share And a sky full of sparks in the warm night air When the morning finds us a hundred miles away We’ll still be singing what we sang today Take the lost highway, wherever it goes With my friends beside me and the whole world open [Аутро] With my friends beside me and the whole world open Take the lost highway
