The brake lights
Are really quite lovely
Thousands of souls
All stopping together

On the highway tonight
There's no reason to cry out your eyes 
On the highway tonight
There's no reason to cry out your eyes 

The city
Starts fading behind us
Thousands of souls all wishing
Things were better

Sadness
Is waiting to happen
For people like us
Not sure where they're going

On the highway tonight
There's no reason to cry out your eyes 
On the highway tonight
There's no reason to cry out your eyes  

Watching the fading
Watch everything go by.
(everything go by, everything go by, everything go by...) 

On the highway tonight
There's no reason to cry out your eyes 

Sadness
Is waiting to  happen
But we have our eyes
Set dead on the ocean

On the highway tonight
There's no reason to cry out your eyes (on the highway) 
On the highway tonight
There's no reason to cry out your eyes (on the highway) 
On the highway tonight
There's no reason to cry out your eyes (on the highway) 
On the highway tonight 
There's no reason to cry out your eyes (reason to cry out your eyes)
On the highway tonight
There's no reason to cry out your eyes (on the highway) 
On the highway tonight
There's no reason to cry out your eyes (on the highway) 
On the highway tonight
There's no reason to cry out your eyes
