Lantern Momentum

Verse

Boots on the tailgate, dust on my collar

Girl walked in like she owned the whole holler

Swinging that lantern, easy and slow

Every step she takes got a golden glow

I wasn't looking for nothing tonight

But she lit the gravel up bright

Pre-Chorus

Now my heart's an engine, catching that spark

Rolling downhill, can't find the dark

Tell me girl, where's this leading to

Cause I'm already gone for you

Chorus

I got that lantern momentum, rolling like a runaway wheel

Can't slow down now, don't want to, this is how falling feels

One look from you and the whole night's burning steel

Lantern momentum, baby, this is real

Verse

Porch swing creaking, sweet tea sweating

Moon's coming up, and I ain't forgetting

The way you laughed with your head thrown back

Set my whole world off the track

Now I'm chasing that light down the county line

Every mile marker says you're mine

Pre-Chorus

Now my heart's an engine, catching that spark

Rolling downhill, can't find the dark

Tell me girl, where's this leading to

Cause I'm already gone for you

Chorus

I got that lantern momentum, rolling like a runaway wheel

Can't slow down now, don't want to, this is how falling feels

One look from you and the whole night's burning steel

Lantern momentum, baby, this is real

Bridge

Used to drive slow, never chase a flame

Now I'm running red lights just to hear your name

Some folks call it crazy, I call it flying free

Girl, you're the only fuel that's ever moved me

Chorus

I got that lantern momentum, rolling like a runaway wheel

Can't slow down now, don't want to, this is how falling feels

One look from you and the whole night's burning steel

Lantern momentum, baby, this is real

Lantern momentum, girl, it's real
