Weather on the Radio (Version 2)

Verse

Map on the dashboard, a pencil line through town

Six days till you're gone but I don't check my phone

Radio crackling static in between the stations

I let it hold a frequency we know as our own

Station skip to a song we used to play

Bassline dips and I feel your palm on mine

Say goodbye like it's a forecast, soft and slow

Not a storm that's gonna leave us nothing left behind

Pre-Chorus

So is this the calm before the road pulls me through

Or just the hush before the highway turns to you

Chorus

Weather on the radio says something different now

Maybe every ending's still got room to glow

Goodbye with a sunrise stuck between the words somehow

I'm not breaking, I'm just letting summer go

Verse

Packed up your suitcase by the open door

Left one sock behind like I left you whole

Sweatshirt smells like salt and July 4th nights

Every road sign feels like writing out our own

Gas station coffee hot but my hands still shake

Watching this highway stretch out in a way that's mine now

Radio skipping stations like it knows the score

Static hums your name before the word arrives

Pre-Chorus

So is this the calm before the road pulls me through

Or just the hush before the highway turns to you

Chorus

Weather on the radio says something different now

Maybe every ending's still got room to glow

Goodbye with a sunrise stuck between the words somehow

I'm not breaking, I'm just letting summer go

Bridge

Every mile marker feels like a letter home

Written in dust and headlights and the hum of wheels alone

This is how the wide open starts to feel like my own

Not the end but a new forecast, rolling into dawn

Chorus

Weather on the radio says something different now

Maybe every ending's still got room to glow

Goodbye with a sunrise stuck between the words somehow

I'm not breaking, I'm just letting summer go
