Gates Open Wide (versione 2)

Verse

Packed the cooler in the back of the truck

Sweat on your neck, sun's climbing through

We left at midnight when it was still dark

Barely 20 and we're burning like a spark

Chugging down gravel where the pavement ends

Engine coughing like an old friend

I can see the windscreen fogging up slow

You grab my hand so nobody lets go

Pre-Chorus

So what do you say, do we keep moving on

Or pull over right before it gets gone

Chorus

Gates open wide, gates open wide

We're chasing sun and we won't be denied

Gates open wide, we break free tonight

Sunlight streaming in like a light

Gates open wide, gates open wide

We own the highway 'til morning's pride

Verse

Gas gauge reading red down to zero

Radio spitting static on the stereo

Tailpipe coughing up a little smoke

You laugh and I say drive slow, don't choke

Chewing on the hem of your shirt sleeve

Feeling like we're floating off our seat

No maps in the glovebox where we put them

Just this endless stretch between us

Pre-Chorus

So what do you say, do we keep moving on

Or pull over right before it gets gone

Chorus

Gates open wide, gates open wide

We're chasing sun and we won't be denied

Gates open wide, we break free tonight

Sunlight streaming in like a light

Gates open wide, gates open wide

We own the highway 'til morning's pride

Bridge

Maybe this is it, maybe we just found it

Or maybe tomorrow comes with its own map unspun

Either way, I wouldn't trade the view

Cause right now we got nothing but this engine too

Chorus

Gates open wide, gates open wide

We're chasing sun and we won't be denied

Gates open wide, we break free tonight

Sunlight streaming in like a light

Gates open wide, gates open wide

We own the highway 'til morning's pride
