[booklet text, Rio version]

Back on the highway
Down on the road
You wanna tell me
-- girl, I gotta go alone
You wanna go alone?
I'll take the chance
I want to go with you --

Yuo've heard the wind blow hard it before
This time it's different
Packed and headed for the door
You gotta find a way
I'll take the chance
And help you find a way --

In your eyes
The shadow and the light
in your heart
I want to go, want to go with you --

Tell me where you're going
I am going too
Tell me where you're going
I will go with you --

Where are we going
What's down the road
Where's the wind blowing
Will we ever really know --
We gotta find a way
We'll take the chance
And we will find a way --

In your eyes
The laughter and the tears
Hear me cry
I want to go, I want to go
Come on baby, won't you let me go
I want to go along with you --

Tell me where you're going
I am going too
Tell me where you're going
I will go with you --
