I was lost in New England on the highway at night
And with danger at every mile, no one flashed me their lights
The snow had all frozen and covered my path
And as I pushed forward my spirits tried pulling me back
I skidded and stopped short of
Falling off of a ledge on the side of the road
But I was always hanging there and I never could let go
So we took a scenic detour, you took the seat to my right
And our trips would be joyrides if we were in the mood that night
And we drove into a sunrise, our eyes glowing red
Now I love you from Jersey to Hartford and there and back again
Our journey there was slow, oh
But that's what it's all about, we will be each other's guide
We can figure this one out, every tunnel has a light
