Every Radio Light (version 2)

Verse

Neon sign still flickers over the diner glass

Your name in permanent ink where the counter's been replaced

Six years on and I'm still folding up your jacket

Like every winter got us younger than we felt

Pre-Chorus

Tell me what it takes to keep a light like this lit

When the station folds at dawn and nobody hits play

Chorus

Every radio light that ever kept our name alive

Every small town starlet burning till the sign turns off tonight

We were louder than a sunset, we were brighter than a lie

So I'm keeping every frequency playing on the other side

Every radio light that's still holding onto mine

Verse

Gas station coffee gone cold by the time I hit the interstate

Your voice still echoing where the static used to live

I drove for hours through the same old cornfields and my name

Disappeared in letters nobody writes, but I'm not lost just yet

Pre-Chorus

Tell me what it takes to keep a light like this lit

When the station folds at dawn and nobody hits play

Chorus

Every radio light that ever kept our name alive

Every small town starlet burning till the sign turns off tonight

We were louder than a sunset, we were brighter than a lie

So I'm keeping every frequency playing on the other side

Every radio light that's still holding onto mine

Bridge

Maybe it's not home anymore, maybe it never was

But I built this echo out of every heartbeat that missed

I don't need your voice to know you hear me anyway

Every static scar is a ghost that still comes back each day

Chorus

Every radio light that ever kept our name alive

Every small town starlet burning till the sign turns off tonight

We were louder than a sunset, we were brighter than a lie

So I'm keeping every frequency playing on the other side

Every radio light that's still holding onto mine
