Lyrics

Intro

Mm

Mm-hmm

Mm

Verse 1

I found you by the change machine

Six pens and a parking dream

Your jacket smelled like peppermint gum

You smiled like trouble had just begun

You said, "Got luck in your left front pocket"

I said, "Mine's split but I still rock it"

We laughed too loud in the store-brand rain

And both our shoes had the same black stain

Pre-Chorus

Then you rolled that coin

Like a tiny moon

One quick spin

And the whole room moved

Chorus

Quarter machine, take me there

Spin my heart in the midnight air

Quarter machine, quarter machine

One little turn and you know what I mean

Quarter machine, hold me close

Pick the one thing I want most

Quarter machine, quarter machine

I keep coming back to the glow of your grin

Verse 2

You bought two sodas and a paper crown

Drew a smiley face on the takeout napkin around

Said, "Let's make a map from the checkout line"

To anywhere that feels like mine

I keep your coin in the palm of my hand

Cold little promise, half a plan

If love is a gamble, then let it be

With a sticky floor and a song from me

Pre-Chorus

Then you rolled that coin

Like a tiny moon

One quick spin

And the whole room moved

Chorus

Quarter machine, take me there

Spin my heart in the midnight air

Quarter machine, quarter machine

One little turn and you know what I mean

Quarter machine, hold me close

Pick the one thing I want most

Quarter machine, quarter machine

I keep coming back to the glow of your grin

Bridge

If the road bends hard

If the night runs thin

Turn me once again

And let me in

Chorus

Quarter machine, take me there

Spin my heart in the midnight air

Quarter machine, quarter machine

One little turn and you know what I mean

Quarter machine, hold me close

Pick the one thing I want most

Quarter machine, quarter machine

I keep coming back to the glow of your grin
