lyrics

You´re rollin down this highway
The one, they say, it´s lost
Somewhere you took the wrong turn
And you´re still payin´ the costs
There´s no angel comin down to guide you on your way
There´s no angel comin down…

You´re rollin down this highway
To something far ahead
You´re tired and you´re lonesome
And sometimes you go mad
There´s no angel comin down no matter how you pray
There´s no angel comin down but that´s okay…

Cause everything´s gonna be alright
And suddenly there´s a brandnew sight
And you get it now that big fishes swim slowly
But reach their goal right on time

You´re rollin down this highway
Leads straight to hell, they say
But where you´re really end up
Let´s wait for judgement day
There´s no angel comin down to rig the scales for you
There´s no angel comin down - it´s up to you…

But everything´s gonna be alright
And suddenly there´s a brandnew sight
And you get it now that big fishes swim slowly…
But reach their goal right on time

It´s been no easy walk for you
But finally all things come true
Cause you get it now that big fishes swim slowly…
And reach their goal right on time
