Sunrise on the dashboard (version 2)

Verse

Coffee's cold on the passenger seat

Skyline turned to gold through your earlobe

You lean back on the door handle like you know

This won't be how it ends up

Your pulse keeps time with the speedometer ticking

Every exit line of this endless road

I'm running out of places to hold your hand

The gas light's flashing, but I don't need a map

Pre-Chorus

Can we keep this moving like it's going on and on?

Or do you feel the same way I do when the sun comes up?

Chorus

Sunrise on the dashboard, gold across your skin

We left the city behind, but we're still in the end zone

You don't say a word, but I can read it loud in your eyes

Is this the start of something or goodbye by sunrise

Sunrise on the dashboard, paint the road like a prayer

Every mile is another second to tell you that I care

Verse

License plate rusting where the wipers used to be

The radio's humming what we left behind

You take the wheel and I get back in my seat

Like this was something we could just drive away from

Your hand rests on the gearshift, a long slow slide

I'm waiting for you to say it or keep driving silent

Pre-Chorus

Can we keep this moving like it's going on and on?

Or do you feel the same way I do when the sun comes up?

Chorus

Sunrise on the dashboard, gold across your skin

We left the city behind, but we're still in the end zone

You don't say a word, but I can read it loud in your eyes

Is this the start of something or goodbye by sunrise

Sunrise on the dashboard, paint the road like a prayer

Every mile is another second to tell you that I care

Bridge

Maybe this whole drive's just about the ride

Not where we're going, but the way it feels inside

You don't need words when your eyes say more than any phrase

So maybe this is exactly how love stays

Chorus

Sunrise on the dashboard, gold across your skin

We left the city behind, but we're still in the end zone

You don't say a word, but I can read it loud in your eyes

Is this the start of something or goodbye by sunrise

Sunrise on the dashboard, paint the road like a prayer

Every mile is another second to tell you that I care

Outro

Gold across your skin

Goodbye by sunrise
