Barefoot 'Til Dawn (версия 2)

Verse

Screen door slapping open by the porch light glow

Radio station fading to static and low

Boots kicked off where the gravel ends

Sneak out before your parents understand

You got a map folded up in your back pocket like a secret

I'm tracing roads I've never seen, just to get you settled

Sixteen turning over like a wheel on fire

Nowhere left we need to be that's not out there

Pre-Chorus

So what do you say we ditch the rules tonight?

Trade this small town for a neon sign

Sky's still painted gold at the edge of town

We could run it, we could spin it down

You feel that engine humming in your chest?

This is better than a promise, this is progress

Chorus

Barefoot 'til dawn on the hood of my truck

Windows down and your hair's caught up like a streak of luck

We're burning daylight just to watch the sky turn blue

Ridin' quiet now but I can already see you

Verse

Sneaking into the old drive-in, engine cut off low

Your hand's on my knee where nobody's watching go

Speakers crackling static on a summer song we know

Static on our phones but the world don't need to know

I drew you a map that looks like a mess of lines and names

Said let's get lost in it, see how far this engine burns

Every porch light fading like a firefly in the rain

We're the only ones brave enough to cross the line

Pre-Chorus

So what do you say we ditch the rules tonight?

Trade this small town for a neon sign

Sky's still painted gold at the edge of town

We could run it, we could spin it down

You feel that engine humming in your chest?

This is better than a promise, this is progress

Chorus

Barefoot 'til dawn on the hood of my truck

Windows down and your hair's caught up like a streak of luck

We're burning daylight just to watch the sky turn blue

Ridin' quiet now but I can already see you

Bridge

Someday they'll tell this story loud enough to shake the ground

Say two kids with nothing built an empire on empty sound

So right now let's keep the radio up and the volume high

Before they learn to chase us, we were living in a sky

No rules today, no rules tonight

Just you and me against the headlights, flying into light

This ain't forever, this is just tonight

Hold my hand like it's the only thing that feels right

Chorus

Barefoot 'til dawn on the hood of my truck

Windows down and your hair's caught up like a streak of luck

We're burning daylight just to watch the sky turn blue

Ridin' quiet now but I can already see you
