The sun's reflecting off the city limit sign

I better keep moving before i change my mind

Lookin' in the rearview mirror

Comin' home didn't make it clearer

I didn't wanna hear her say goodbye



Heartache highway why didn't i say

What she wanted to hear

Why must the most important words go unspoken

Heartache highway now it's too late

To ever change her mind

Oh it's a hell of a road

When you're leavin' heaven behind



Memories of her dance in my headlights

As i'm ridin' my pain into the night

Headin' for the next horizon

Watchin' the full moon risin'

Gotta keep on drivin' goin' nowhere..on this



Heartache highway why didn't i say

What she wanted to hear

Why must the most important words go unspoken

Heartache highway now it's too late

To ever change her mind

Oh it's a hell of a road

When you're leavin' heaven behind

Oh it's a hell of a road

When you're leavin' heaven behind
