Midnight in the Mire 2

Verse

Honeycomb hills glint like bone in the dawn light

Dust hangs low where the engine tracks the night

I traded wings for a rusty old door

You're walking towards me in the half-open door

We danced until the stars came out to stay

Now your hair's hanging over the headlights all day

Pre-Chorus

So which way's the road, and which is the sea

Is this the finish or just part two

I don't know you but I feel like home in your eyes

So which way's the road and who do we run to now

Chorus

Midnight in the mire and I'll never let go

Washed clean by the headlights, right where the gravel goes

Every highway's a promise that won't break

We're chasing the sunset till it turns into our own

One thousand miles of open road, one heartbeat to call my own

Midnight in the mire and we'll ride the dawn away

Verse

You pull your collar up like you've been to war

I hand you a bottle with ice floating for

Your voice is thin from singing out the night

Mine is too, but it comes back bright

The dust on your boots says this ain't where you start

But I think this might be exactly who we are

Pre-Chorus

So which way's the road, and which is the sea

Is this the finish or just part two

I don't know you but I feel like home in your eyes

So which way's the road and who do we run to now

Chorus

Midnight in the mire and I'll never let go

Washed clean by the headlights, right where the gravel goes

Every highway's a promise that won't break

We're chasing the sunset till it turns into our own

One thousand miles of open road, one heartbeat to call my own

Midnight in the mire and we'll ride the dawn away

Bridge

I'm not afraid of dark because you've got your hand on mine

Every shadow's a promise that keeps us from looking behind

Let the night get as wide as it wants

We're already gone, long before it even starts

Chorus

Midnight in the mire and I'll never let go

Washed clean by the headlights, right where the gravel goes

Every highway's a promise that won't break

We're chasing the sunset till it turns into our own

One thousand miles of open road, one heartbeat to call my own

Midnight in the mire and we'll ride the dawn away
