Midnight Radio Blues (version 2)

Verse

Rust belt lights on the dashboard glow

Sirens fade as we drift out slow

Fog rolling in off the lake

Engine ticking like it won't break

Four a.m., the neon's dimmed

Your hand finds mine on the last chorus hum

I don't need your name, I got your voice

Echoing soft through this empty road

Pre-Chorus

So what do we do when the city sleeps

And all that's left is us and the highway's shape

Chorus

Midnight radio blues on the open line

Just you, just me, no need for a name

Fading like static into mine

This is how I want to spend my life

Verse 2

Broken taillight, engine humming low

Your thumb traces patterns that only we know

Dairy farms sleeping in the dark

Stars blinking out one by one like sparks

I catch your eye at a red light blink

Time stands still when the whole world's moving fast

No yesterday, no tomorrow either

Just this dashboard glow, just you and me here

Pre-Chorus

So what do we do when the city sleeps

And all that's left is us and the highway's shape

Chorus

Midnight radio blues on the open line

Just you, just me, no need for a name

Fading like static into mine

This is how I want to spend my life

Bridge

Static's soft where your palm meets mine

Don't ask what station this is mine

Hold the wheel, let the engine coast

Nothing left but rhythm and the road

Chorus

Midnight radio blues on the open line

Just you, just me, no need for a name

Fading like static into mine

This is how I want to spend my life
