Counting the Stars in Your Rearview Mirror (version 2)

Verse

Dust from your tire tracks in the gravel by the drive

Your screen door still holding heat against the evening sky

Pre-Chorus

So tell me how you do it when the road stretches on like this

Do you count the miles or keep track of my heart in its rhythm?

Chorus

I'm counting the stars in your rearview mirror

Every one a thousand miles closer to where we're from

Dust on my windshield, static on the dial

Every mile behind us is just one more to call you home

Verse

Neon glow from that truck stop diner where we used to share a cup of coffee

Your hand still warm in mine though it's been years since we parted the way

Pre-Chorus

So tell me how you do it when the road stretches on like this

Do you count the miles or keep track of my heart in its rhythm?

Chorus

I'm counting the stars in your rearview mirror

Every one a thousand miles closer to where we're from

Dust on my windshield, static on the dial

Every mile behind us is just one more to call you home

Bridge

Maybe this highway was never an ending at all

Just a map to lead me back through the stars to your door

Chorus

I'm counting the stars in your rearview mirror

Every one a thousand miles closer to where we're from

Dust on my windshield, static on the dial

Every mile behind us is just one more to call you home
