I ride the long, dark highway
Sign says, 'Keep to the right'
I ride the long, dark highway
In the cool black of the night
I know things have got to
Get better when I get there
'Cause anywhere is
Better than here
Anywhere is better than here
And where I'm going, boy, I don't really care
'Cause I've been there and I'll be there again
But tonight anywhere is better than here
With you in my sight
I'm ridin' fast and low
With his memory right behind
There's a new life waitin' for me
And I'm gonna make it mine
And I don't care
If the sun don't shine out there
'Cause anywhere is
Better than here
Anywhere is better than here
And where I'm going, boy, I don't really care
'Cause I've been there and I'll be there again
But tonight anywhere is better than here
With you in my sight
And I've never felt so strong and alive
Then to pack up, leave you and drive
I ride the long, dark highway
The dawn is coming, I see the light
And if I start all over this time
This time I'll get it right
Don't ask me where I'm going
When you don't really care
'Cause anywhere
Is better than here
Anywhere is better than here
And where I'm going, boy, I don't really care
'Cause I've been there and I'll be there again
But tonight anywhere is better than here
With you in my sight
Tonight, tonight
