[Verse 1]
Met you on a traffic island
We were there all day
In the middle of the world's highway
Summer left its light green lipstick
On our faces
Took us to all the pretty places

[Chorus]
Highway 405 will take you
From the Boom Boom Room
To Interstate 5 which goes right to
The San Diego Zoo
San Diego Zoo
San Diego Zoo
San Diego Zoo
San Diego Zoo
How could I have ever left you?

[Verse 2]
Left you in a sidewalk cafe
I'm the restless kind
And I must have been out of my mind
'Cause I haven't slept since Wednesday
I've been getting thin
I just want to see your silly grin
[Chorus]
Highway 405 will take you
From the Boom Boom Room
To Interstate 5 which goes right to
The San Diego Zoo
San Diego Zoo
San Diego Zoo
San Diego Zoo
San Diego Zoo
How could I have ever left you?
How could I have ever left you?

[Chorus]
Highway 405 will take you
From the Boom Boom Room
To Interstate 5 which goes right to
The San Diego Zoo
San Diego Zoo
San Diego Zoo (San Diego Zoo)
San Diego Zoo
San Diego Zoo (San Diego Zoo)
How could I have ever left you?
How could I have ever left you?
