Cold and Gold on 4AM Freeways (version 2)

Verse

Tailgate rattles on the back of my truck

Frost off the windshield, your coffee's still lukewarm and stuck

Four in the morning and we ain't tired yet

Rust belt glow under our feet

Pre-Chorus

Where do you go when you finally get free?

Do you stay right here with me, or do I watch it slip away from my eyes

Chorus

So let's drive these golden miles

Catch the sun before it goes cold on us tonight

Breathe this in and hold it tight

Stay where we are for just one more light

Cold but gold on four-A-M freeways, stay where we are tonight

Verse 2

Dust behind your wheels off into the dawn

Sugarcane fields humming to the sun's rebirth now

You spin me round in that open space

Like this whole wide world has got us in a golden place

Pre-Chorus

Where do you go when you finally get free?

Do you stay right here with me, or do I watch it slip away from my eyes

Chorus

So let's drive these golden miles

Catch the sun before it goes cold on us tonight

Breathe this in and hold it tight

Stay where we are for just one more light

Cold but gold on four-A-M freeways, stay where we are tonight

Bridge

I'll trade my sleep for this hour's gold

Give up the clock so I don't lose you to it

Every mile is a reason not to let go of you

Sunrise slow over the old cornfield too

So hold on tight and let me drive this one through

Chorus

So let's drive these golden miles

Catch the sun before it goes cold on us tonight

Breathe this in and hold it tight

Stay where we are for just one more light

Cold but gold on four-A-M freeways, stay where we are tonight
