The Last Bus to Sunset (Version 2)

Verse

Boarding card in your pocket, cold coffee on the seat

I watch the sunset paint the whole horizon neat

Every stop along the way you grab another hand

Like we're not leaving, like this road is grand

Pre-Chorus

So hold on to my jacket, let me know it's still true

That distance doesn't mean goodbye for us two

We made a map of what could be and that won't fade

You're still the one I'm following out here in the shade

Chorus

Last bus to sunset, we ride this road

Every mile between us pulling closer home

Hold on tight to something I've found

Every sunset finds us right back around

Last bus to sunset, we won't be alone

We're not leaving. We just get another view.

Last bus to sunset, we ride this road

Every mile between us pulling closer home

Verse

Post office window counting down the hours till you leave

Your suitcase still half-packed but I don't believe it's over yet

I'm folding up your sweater like a promise kept

Holding on to every color that won't forget

Pre-Chorus

So hold on to my jacket, let me know it's still true

That distance doesn't mean goodbye for us two

We made a map of what could be and that won't fade

You're still the one I'm following out here in the shade

Chorus

Last bus to sunset, we ride this road

Every mile between us pulling closer home

Hold on tight to something I've found

Every sunset finds us right back around

Last bus to sunset, we won't be alone

We're not leaving. We just get another view.

Last bus to sunset, we ride this road

Every mile between us pulling closer home

Bridge

Maybe the distance is just a different light

That's shining on the same old thing tonight

No matter how far I drive you'll always stay close to me

Right here in my pocket, right here in my eyes

Hold on to that and let the engine keep rolling

We can catch our sunset from any station now

Chorus

Last bus to sunset, we ride this road

Every mile between us pulling closer home

Hold on tight to something I've found

Every sunset finds us right back around

Last bus to sunset, we won't be alone

We're not leaving. We just get another view.

Last bus to sunset, we ride this road

Every mile between us pulling closer home
