Last Stop Before the Water (Version 2)

Verse

We left at midnight in your best friend's truck

Barely made it down the block before we pulled over

Windows rolled back, moonlight on your collarbone

You asked if I was ready to let this go

I said no and you started humming along

Pre-Chorus

So here we are right before the bridge

The only sound is your radio

Is it too late to ask where you stand?

Can you hear me, hand in yours, across the sand?

Chorus

Last stop before the water, last light on the line

Say what's holding you now, say it like the tide

I can feel you counting down the miles

Last stop before the water and I need your name tonight

Verse

The back of your neck is warm against mine

You're saying something that sounds just like goodbye

Palm trees are swaying to a rhythm we don't know yet

Your hand drops off the wheel but doesn't let go

Pre-Chorus

So here we are right before the bridge

The only sound is your radio

Is it too late to ask where you stand?

Can you hear me, hand in yours, across the sand?

Chorus

Last stop before the water, last light on the line

Say what's holding you now, say it like the tide

I can feel you counting down the miles

Last stop before the water and I need your name tonight

Bridge

Maybe this whole drive was just a test

Maybe we're here to see if we still fit

No clock in the car to tell us what to do

Only the hum of the engine, only you and me, too

Chorus

Last stop before the water, last light on the line

Say what's holding you now, say it like the tide

I can feel you counting down the miles

Last stop before the water and I need your name tonight
