Lyrics

The world stood still while he lit the house on fire
She couldn’t say a word
Who can live in a house with dark desires?
It all has turned absurd

It’s time to go no one can find us
We’re heading for the road

Leave the highway and the heartache
Let this world fade away
Take a left onto South Congress
I know where we can stay
Just across the continental is the Austin motel
Tonight we got nowhere to go
It’s just you and me in the neon sign glow

On the news, another bad story
He can’t ease the pain
All those years of service still no glory
It all has turned insane

It’s time to go no one can find us
We’re heading for the road

Leave the highway and the heartache
Let this world fade away
Take a left onto South Congress
I know where we can stay
Just across the continental is the Austin motel
Tonight we got nowhere to go
It’s just you and me in the neon sign glow

Guitar solo

Leave the highway and the heartache
Let this world fade away
Take a left onto South Congress
I know where we can stay
Just across the continental is the Austin motel
Tonight we got nowhere to go

Leave the highway and the heartache
Let this world fade away
Take a left onto South Congress
I know where we can stay
Just across the continental is the Austin motel
Tonight we got nowhere to go
Tonight we got nowhere to go
It’s just you and me in the neon sign glow
