Salt in Your Hairline (Version 2)

Verse 1 – male vocal

I used to drive down the coast where the salt air blows through

Watching sunsets I wish I could stay true to you

Your laugh still echoes like a seagull's cry

Every mile marker marks a piece of goodbye

The waves roll in, the tide pulls back again

But your smile stays with me till the stars appear

Pre-Chorus

Tell me is it done? Is there something left unspoken?

Is this the end or just another turning page we're not written yet?

Chorus

Oh I'm chasing sunsets in my rearview mirror

With salt in your hairline and a picture to remember

We never made it home but I know you're out there somewhere

And I'm holding on to every wave that brings us back here

Verse 2 – female vocal

You took the map from my hand where we'd drawn our route together

Wrote down places only dreams can discover

I watched your headlights fade into the amber sky

Feeling like a ghost that nobody asks why

Your shadow still dancing on the fog rolled off the sea

Like you're walking next to me, but only in memory

Pre-Chorus

Tell me is it done? Is there something left unspoken?

Is this the end or just another turning page we're not written yet?

Chorus

Oh I'm chasing sunsets in my rearview mirror

With salt in your hairline and a picture to remember

We never made it home but I know you're out there somewhere

And I'm holding on to every wave that brings us back here

Bridge – both

Maybe someday we'll circle round again

Find the same horizon where our hearts still spin

For now I'll keep this ghost of a good-bye

Knowing in your eyes the sun's never gone from our sky

Chorus

Oh I'm chasing sunsets in my rearview mirror

With salt in your hairline and a picture to remember

We never made it home but I know you're out there somewhere

And I'm holding on to every wave that brings us back here
