The Forecast Says Maybe

Verse

Sunday morning, your window's cracked

Papers on the floor, a coffee ring that won't break.

Sixth day running now of this same old forecast

You keep saying nothing till you get it right at last

Your coat's slung over my arm like summer stays

Pre-Chorus

Can we drive all night with the windows down?

Tell me you don't need to find your way around.

I'm not a map, I'm just a name you trust

Chorus

So hold onto something because tonight will turn again

The forecast says maybe but I don't believe it when

Every little doubt you give in starts to bend the light

We're running out of daylight so we won't stop right here yet

Maybe the sun comes up and maybe it doesn't stay

But either way, I'm holding on because today is all that I got

Verse

Monday evening, my mom's at the door

You laugh too loud for a story she never knew before.

Tuesday morning, the streetlights hum awake

Your backpack slung low like you're carrying weight

The radio keeps playing songs we used to play in August

Not the kind that fix it, just the ones we both still trust

Pre-Chorus

Can we drive all night with the windows down?

Tell me you don't need to find your way around.

I'm not a map, I'm just a name you trust

Chorus

So hold onto something because tonight will turn again

The forecast says maybe but I don't believe it when

Every little doubt you give in starts to bend the light

We're running out of daylight so we won't stop right here yet

Maybe the sun comes up and maybe it doesn't stay

But either way, I'm holding on because today is all that I got

Bridge

Weather says no rain but I've got my umbrella ready

Just in case the whole world decides to change its mind.

You can fold your jacket tight like a promise you keep secret

Every little maybe gets us closer to tonight

Chorus

So hold onto something because tonight will turn again

The forecast says maybe but I don't believe it when

Every little doubt you give in starts to bend the light

We're running out of daylight so we won't stop right here yet

Maybe the sun comes up and maybe it doesn't stay

But either way, I'm holding on because today is all that I got
