They made up their minds
  and they started packing
  they left before the sun came up that day
  an exit to eternal summer slacking
  but where were they going without ever knowing the way?
  
  they drank up the wine
  and they got to talking
  they now had more important things to say
  and when the car broke down they started walking
  where were they going without ever knowing the way?
  
  anyone could see the road that they walk on is paved with gold
  it's always summer,
  they'll never get cold
  they'll never get hungry
  they'll never get old and gray
  
  you can see their shadows wandering off somewhere
  they won't make it home
  but they really don't care
  they wanted the highway
  they're happier there today, today
  
  the children woke up
  and they couldn't find them
  they left before the sun came up that day
  they just drove off
  and left it all behind them
  but where were they going without ever knowing the way?
  
  anyone could see the road that they walk on is paved with gold
  it's always summer, they'll never get cold
  they'll never get hungry
  they'll never get old and gray
  
  you can see their shadows wandering off somewhere
  they won't make it home
  but they really don't care
  they wanted the highway
  they're happier there today, today
