Dirt in My Veins 2 (version 2)

Verse

Dusty boots kicked off on the porch swing

Sweat dripping down where my collar used to cling

You smile like sunshine through a cracked windowpane

And I know right then that we'll never be tamed

The radio's static in your ears

I'm tracing circles on the back of your neck for years

The engine coughs, the headlights flicker slow

We're burning out our headlights but we won't let go

Pre-Chorus

Who needs tomorrow when tonight's already ours?

Can you feel the dirt rising up from these two hours?

Hold this moment right where it is, don't let it slide

Cause I'm falling harder with every mile

Chorus

Dirt in my veins, sparklers on your skin

I've never felt so alive since we drove off the grid again

Dirt in my veins and a whole lot of gold

Nothing to lose but this one wild ride

Verse 2

The wind's blowing through the busted tailgate screen

Your hair caught fire in that neon glow machine

We're dancing on the hood like nobody's watching time

And I swear, right here, we'll make this summer rhyme

The backroads bend around us like a winding stage

Every mile marker is just another page

I've never felt so free since you took my hand

Now nothing can stop us, not even the sand

Pre-Chorus

Who needs tomorrow when tonight's already ours?

Can you feel the dirt rising up from these two hours?

Hold this moment right where it is, don't let it slide

Cause I'm falling harder with every mile

Chorus

Dirt in my veins, sparklers on your skin

I've never felt so alive since we drove off the grid again

Dirt in my veins and a whole lot of gold

Nothing to lose but this one wild ride

Bridge

Maybe someday we'll grow out our boots and fade into gray

But I want these dirt roads in every line, in every sway

I'm writing this whole world down on your collarbone tonight

And no matter where life takes us, I know I'll be alright

Chorus

Dirt in my veins, sparklers on your skin

I've never felt so alive since we drove off the grid again

Dirt in my veins and a whole lot of gold

Nothing to lose but this one wild ride
