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
