This Way to Happiness

This Way to Happiness 
(Frey/Oliver/Tempchin)

Way out of town, I was on a midnight highway  
Middle of nowhere just drivin' by myself  
Night was cold, the wind was blowin'  
Me, I felt like I was someone else  
I was achin', I was alone  
No destination, so far away from home  
Suddenly I found myself callin' to the heavens above  
Please send me someone to love  

Which way to happiness  
Over the mountain  
Which way to freedom  
Just across the sea  
The love I'd been searchin' for
Seems like forever now  
Which way to happiness  
For someone like me  

Seems like I spent my whole life runnin'  
Runnin' away from what I could be  
On some endless road just south of nowhere  
Always movin', but never really free  
I had a dream, I said a prayer  
Just like the answer, you were standin' there  
A neon sign that was fifteen stories tall  
I could hear the angels call

This way to happiness  
The train is leavin'  
Over the mountain  
Down to the sea  
The highway to freedom is when you start believin'  
This way to happiness  
For you and me  

I rolled this rig from coast to coast  
Seen a lot I've done more than most  
I was like a sailor lost at sea  
But like an angel from above you came down and rescued me  

This way to happiness  
The train is leavin'  
Over the mountain  
Down to the sea  
The highway to freedom  
Is when you start believin'  
This way to happiness.
