Life Is A Highway

Artist: Rascal Flatts
Song Title: Life Is a Highway (OST Cars)

Hmmm, yeah

Life's like a road that you travel on
When there's one day here an' the next day gone
Sometimes you bend, sometimes you stand
Sometimes you turn your back to the wind
There's a world outside every darkened door
Where blues won't haunt you anymore
Where brave are free an' lovers soar
Come ride with me to the distant shore

We won't hesitate
Ta' break down the garden gate
There's not much time left today, yeahea...

[CHORUS]
Life is a highway
I wanna ride it all night long
If you're going my way
Well, I wanna drive it all night long

Through all these cities an' all these towns
It's in my blood an' it's all around
I love you now like I loved you then
This is the road an' these are the hands
From Mozambique to those Memphis nights
The Khyber Pass to Vancouver's lights
Knock me down, an' back up again
You're in my blood, I'm not a lonely man

There's no load I can't hold
Road so rough, this I know
I'll be there when the light comes in
Just tell 'em we're survivors

[CHORUS]
Life is a highway
Well, I wanna ride it all night long
If you're going my way
I wanna drive it all night long (all night long)

(Ah, gimme, gimme, gimme, gimme, yeah)

[CHORUS]
Life is a highway
Well, I wanna ride it all night long (Hmmm, yeah!)
If you're going my way (you're goin' my way)
I wanna drive it all night long (all night long)

There was a distance between you and I (between you and I)
A misunderstanding once
But now we look it in the eye
Ooo ohh, yeah
Ah, hm, hm, hm, hm

There ain't no load that I can't hold
A road so rough, this I know
I'll be there when the light comes in
Tell 'em we're survivors

[CHORUS]
Life is a highway
Well, I wanna ride it all night long (All night long, yeah yeah)
If you're goin' my way
Well, I wanna drive it all night long

Ah, gimme, gimme, gimme, ah, gimme, gimme, yeah

[CHORUS]
Life is a highway (life is a highway)
I wanna ride it all night long
(Ooooo, yeah)
You're going my way (you're goin' my way)
I wanna drive it all night long (all night long, yeah)

C'mon!
Ah gimme, gimme, gimme, gimme, gimme, gimme, yeah

[CHORUS]
Life is a highway
I wanna ride it all night long (yeah, I wanna drive it all night long, baby)
If you're goin' my way (you're goin' my way)
I wanna drive it all night long (all night long)

I couldn't resist the temptation…
It was just too strong…
I heard it call me, felt it nudge me…
It lured me… It enticed me…

So what I did was…

I downloaded the soundtrack!
Full album, consisting of tracks
from various artists as well as
the film score! Woo hoo!

*clap clap*

Mr Torrent, you rock.

*does a little dance*

I love this song. Knew at once that it was a Rascal Flatts song. Haha. Gary LeVox's voice is unmistakeable. (FYI, he's the lead vocalist of the band.) Midway through the song, I did have second thoughts, though. Somehow, it didn't sound like one of their compositions – different writing style and melody – so I looked it up. True enough, the song was originally written by Tom Cochrane! No wonder laaa. Aih. Confuse me only. Sheesh. Haha.

I'd upload the album artwork
(cos it's really kick-ass fantastic)
if I could but I can't so… sorry.
Go surf and check it out.
It's beee-yeeeww-teee-fullll, baby!

So, if Life is a highway, all I can say is that you better know which direction you're heading in. That aside, everything else I wanna say, the lyrics' said it loud and clear. Life's like that, huh. It's a highway that goes on and on until you come to the end of the road. Sure, we may come across some bumps along the way or face some bad weather every now and then. But struggle as we may, when finally reach the end, at least we can stand up and proudly tell the world that we're survivors.

Around the block, over the hills,
through the valleys and back again.

We're SURVIVORS!!! =)
