Storm Chaser's Holiday List (Version 2)

Verse

Garage door rolled up on a winter night so bright

Radio tuned to static where the weather meets the light

Your sneakers on the tailgate, laughing at the wheel

Counting down the exits till we hit that open field

Pre-Chorus

Every red light blinking like it's calling out our names

I'm reaching for your hand through the windshield glass and rain

Tell me you're not running from this — tell me you're still in it with me

Say this is how close a storm can feel like family

Chorus

Storm chaser's holiday list, got one thing that I need tonight

Your hand on my knee while we ride out into the light

Every flash of lightning's a reason to believe — believe

This reckless joy is the only thing that feels alive today

Verse

Dunkin' Donuts coffee cups steaming on the dash

Radio dial stuck on that one song we still don't have enough of yet

Your palm on my neck like you're holding back a laugh

Every green light spinning faster than our hearts can catch

Pre-Chorus

Every red light blinking like it's calling out our names

I'm reaching for your hand through the windshield glass and rain

Tell me you're not running from this — tell me you're still in it with me

Say this is how close a storm can feel like family

Chorus

Storm chaser's holiday list, got one thing that I need tonight

Your hand on my knee while we ride out into the light

Every flash of lightning's a reason to believe — believe

This reckless joy is the only thing that feels alive today

Bridge

Maybe we're not built for sunny days and quiet nights

But right now this thunderstorm's feeling like our own private fight

So hold on, don't let go — I mean it, every time it drops

Every single spark of chaos is a reason to be loud

Chorus

Storm chaser's holiday list, got one thing that I need tonight

Your hand on my knee while we ride out into the light

Every flash of lightning's a reason to believe — believe

This reckless joy is the only thing that feels alive today
