Life Is a Highway
Michael Scott and Holly Flax Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Sitting there early morning
Howling at the moon
These days move too quickly
Disappear too soon

I swear I see you smiling
More than I recall
The eyes that made this old fool
Love so deeply fall

My heart was locked up n' hiding
But now it shines on through
Cause life is that much sweeter
With you

The high times come with lows girl
cnd history reminds
Crippling blows have hurt us
Scarring over time

But let's not think of hurting
Tragedy or pain
Just fill your glass and hold me
The two of us remain

My heart was locked up n' hiding
But now it shines on through
Cause life is that much sweeter
With you

--Bridge--

Warm breeze find your wings girl
Take you to the sky
Swinging over oceans
Leave the world behind

I'll join you over the treetops
Watch the ants scurry by
Take my hand my darling
Together we will fly

My heart was locked up n' hiding
But now it shines on through
Cause life is that much sweeter
With you

My heart was locked up n' hiding
But now it shines on through
Cause life is that much sweeter
With you




With you
With you

I think Michael was dreaming of Toby coming back.

Anthony Amalathasan

it was a premonition

DK Metcalf

LOL

Ambroży Fiszke

What David Wallace did to Michael was a pure evil. Michael not long before gave up a chance for money and testified against his girlfriend Jan and for the good of the company.
When later he finds at work a woman he falls in love with - Wallace transfers her to another branch, far enough to literally make them break up.

THE CHIEF FINANCIAL OFFICER DAVID WALLACE

Caleb Benedict

Well think about it from his perspective. The branch manager and only HR rep for that branch are in a relationship. That creates a pretty big conflict of interest.

Matthew Riley

Also the last time Michael had a relationship with someone in the company it ended poorly. He didn’t even file a relationship contract with HR this time either.

V ScUrt

Also Holly was a terrible HR rep. Remember that PDA episode? I think Wallace's actions were well justified
