Lunar Overdrive

Verse

Porch light flickers on the gravel drive

Your name still hangs on the mailbox sign

I'm shifting gears past the water tower

Counting down my very last hour

Dust in the mirror, taillights bleed red

Everything I loved is in the rearview instead

Pre-Chorus

So what's it gonna be, this old highway line

Do I drown in the goodbye or chase the shine

Moon's coming up over the pines tonight

Calling me higher, calling me right

Chorus

I'm running on that lunar overdrive

Silver on the blacktop, keeping me alive

Every mile behind me turns to hope up ahead

Trading all my sorrow for the road instead

Engine's singing loud, I'm leaving soft goodbyes

Riding on that lunar overdrive

Verse

Kitchen radio, one more slow song

Boxes in the bed where the past belongs

Called you once from a gas station line

Static ate the words, but I meant them fine

Now the fields are silver, the sky's turned clear

I'm not running from you, I'm just steering somewhere near

Pre-Chorus

So what's it gonna be, this old highway line

Do I drown in the goodbye or chase the shine

Moon's coming up over the pines tonight

Calling me higher, calling me right

Chorus

I'm running on that lunar overdrive

Silver on the blacktop, keeping me alive

Every mile behind me turns to hope up ahead

Trading all my sorrow for the road instead

Engine's singing loud, I'm leaving soft goodbyes

Riding on that lunar overdrive

Bridge

Maybe you're out there under this same moon

Watching it climb like I'm watching it too

Not every ending has to feel like a wound

Some just turn quiet into a brand new tune

Chorus

I'm running on that lunar overdrive

Silver on the blacktop, keeping me alive

Every mile behind me turns to hope up ahead

Trading all my sorrow for the road instead

Engine's singing loud, I'm leaving soft goodbyes

Riding on that lunar overdrive

Riding on that lunar overdrive
