Bare Hands on the Wheel (versie 2)

Verse 1

Window down, the river breathing cold

Radio low on a song we half know

You take the long way past the shuttered stores

No map tonight, no place we're driving toward

Pre-Chorus

Turn signal ticking like a heartbeat

We blink left and still go straight

Chorus

Bare hands on the wheel

Nowhere left to be

Let the road decide

Just the dark, and you, and me

Bare hands on the wheel

Verse 2

Gas station coffee, steam against the glass

Your free hand finds mine at every light we pass

The dashboard paints you green from chin to brow

We missed our turn an hour back, and we're still smiling now

Pre-Chorus

Turn signal ticking like a heartbeat

We blink left and still go straight

Chorus

Bare hands on the wheel

Nowhere left to be

Let the road decide

Just the dark, and you, and me

Bare hands on the wheel

Bridge – whispered

Every road I planned

Ran straight and then ran out

This one only bends

And I don't want to turn around

Final Chorus

Bare hands on the wheel

Nowhere left to be

Let the road decide

Just the dark, and you, and me

Bare hands on the wheel

Outro

Bare hands on the wheel

Let the road decide
