The Way

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 can see the road that they walk on is paved in gold
 And 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

 Their children woke up
 And they couldn't find 'em
 They left before the sun came up that day
 They just drove off and left it all behind 'em
 But where were they going without ever knowing the way?
