Every Mile is Yours

Verse

Dust trail catching sunlight on the asphalt ridge

Gas station radio won't let us choose our own path

Your boots in my truck bed full of nothing but rhythm and drive

Every mile marker counting is something we got left behind

Pre-Chorus

So what if the odometer never stops moving

What if this is just the whole point of living

Hold on to the wheel, I don't wanna be home yet

Chorus

We're chasing every mile till the stars run out of gold

Every headlight on the highway's leading us back to you

This old engine roaring in our bones knows something we know

No destination ever felt this way – just you and me, no maps, no bounds

Verse 2

Sneakers off at midnight by a roadside lake so still

Crickets drowning out every single phone call's thrill

We're not running from it, we're running for it – whatever 'it' is

Some kind of light over the next small town's water tower riser

Pre-Chorus

So what if the odometer never stops moving

What if this is just the whole point of living

Hold on to the wheel, I don't wanna be home yet

Chorus

We're chasing every mile till the stars run out of gold

Every headlight on the highway's leading us back to you

This old engine roaring in our bones knows something we know

No destination ever felt this way – just you and me, no maps, no bounds

Bridge

Some day we'll be older than this dashboard light

Tellin' stories about a summer so wide it swallowed the night

But right now let's stay on the edge of nowhere we're headed tonight

Right here is forever if forever feels like running in between every mile marker

Chorus

We're chasing every mile till the stars run out of gold

Every headlight on the highway's leading us back to you

This old engine roaring in our bones knows something we know

No destination ever felt this way – just you and me, no maps, no bounds
