This Is What It Feels Like

(album: Ella Mae Bowen EP - 2014)

You picked me up at sunset
So we could drive all through the night
I touched your hand on the gear shift
Just to feel our fingers intertwine
We played two rounds of 20 questions
Trying to learn things we didn't know
We busted up that left rear speaker
Cranking “Born to Run” on the radio
So this is what it feels like
So this is what it feels like
So this is what it feels like
When you say you're not alone
We had a one-way conversation
As I drifted off to dream
And you talked to me clear across Nebraska
I guess you thought I was asleep
And at one point you almost said, “I love you”
And I had to fight to keep my eyes closed
I swear I could feel you looking at me
You should have been watching the road
So this is what it feels like
So this is what it feels like
So this is what it feels like
When you say you're not alone
So this is what it feels like
So this is what it feels like
So this is what it feels like
When you say you're not alone
You're not alone
In your hometown after sunrise
You called your parents on the phone
They were waiting in the front yard
Your momma hugged me and said, “girl, welcome home”
So this is what it feels like
So this is what it feels like
So this is what it feels like
When you say you're not alone
So this is what it feels like
So this is what it feels like
So this is what it feels like
When you say you're not alone
You're not alone
