Two lanes - twistin' down a dusty highway

Two souls - on their way to where it leads
Tail lights - fadin' on the far horizon
But there's a detour on the road to destiny

It goes up in a blinding flash
When two reckless worlds collide
You can't avoid the crash

Sometimes in life we ride on

Divided highway - torn in two directions

Speedin' out of sight through the night
Divided highway - stranded at the crossroads
Of what's wrong and who's right


Two hearts forgettin' what they meant to each other
Too proud ever to admit the truth

Someday it'll all seem clear
When two reckless worlds collide
It's gonna turn to tears

Why must we always ride a divided highway

On the road baby no-one's safe

When two reckless worlds collide
When we defend our faith
That's when in life we ride a divided highway


Shuttin' out the other side
Divided highway clingin' to our foolish pride

Out on the road nowhere; nowhere to hide

Why must we always ride a divided highway

Torn in two directions; speedin' outa sight
Divided highway stranded at the crossroads
Of what's wrong and who's right

Divided highway cuttin' through the darkness

Searchin' for the light

Divided highway ridin' on the fine line
Between day and nite
Divided highway
