Backroads

(album: Superbloom - 2019)

Never get tired of silence on long roads
Maybe another life I would
Maybe I'll never known
We got all we need right here together
No one to hold us back again
No one to turn us in

Pulled my car up to that ballroom
Top down, shotgun you came running outside
Tossed your heels into my backseat
Said, "we ain't coming back this time"

All night, driving low lit back roads
Just keeping outta sight
I'm praying we make that state line
And to the other side
We got only two gallons left
And there's a feeling in my chest
I don't know if you're seeing what I'm seeing
But there's a light on up ahead

Running outta time if we stay here
Maybe another day we could
I guess we'll never know

Pulled my car up to that ballroom
Top down, shotgun and you jumped inside
Checked yourself in my rear view
'Cause we're leaving it all behind

All night, driving low lit back roads
Just keeping outta sight
I'm praying we make that state line
And to the other side
We got only two gallons left
And there's a feeling in my chest
I don't know if you're seeing what I'm seeing
But there's a light on up ahead

Now all this pain when it's over
But I can't deny it was fun
It's all the same when it's over
All we can do now is run

All night, driving low lit back roads
Just keeping outta sight
I'm praying we make that state line
And to the other side
We got only two gallons left
And there's a feeling in my chest
I don't know if you're seeing what I'm seeing
But there's a light on up ahead

Don't know if you're seeing what I'm seeing
But there's a light on up ahead
It's not too far...
