Finish Line Doubt

Verse 1

Neon on the boulevard, the engine's purring low

You rolled up with the top down like you had somewhere to go

Charming as a sunrise, gone before it's noon

I should've seen the blinker, you were leaving by the moon

Pre-Chorus

You say you're only passing through

I say I've heard that line from you

Chorus

Take a midnight lap, then slow it down

You're burning up the whole side of town

Take a midnight lap, but hear me out

There's nothing at the finish line but doubt

Verse 2

Gas-station sunglasses, radio turned high

You've got a different story for every passing sky

I like the way you drive, I like the way you glow

But I'm the one who's left here when the taillights go

Pre-Chorus

You say you're only passing through

I say I've heard that line from you

Chorus

Take a midnight lap, then slow it down

You're burning up the whole side of town

Take a midnight lap, but hear me out

There's nothing at the finish line but doubt

Bridge

Maybe I'm the same, maybe I'm just as fast

Maybe I'm afraid this thing was never meant to last

So park it for a minute, turn off the light

Just stay here with me till the morning's bright

Chorus

Take a midnight lap, then slow it down

I'll meet you halfway in the middle of town

Take a midnight lap, but stay a while

I'd rather watch the sunrise than the mile

Take a midnight lap, then slow it down

You're burning up the whole side of town

Take a midnight lap, but hear me out

There's nothing at the finish line but doubt

Take a midnight lap, then slow it down

I'll meet you halfway in the middle of town

Take a midnight lap, but stay a while

I'd rather watch the sunrise than the mile

Outro

Midnight, midnight

Midnight, midnight

Midnight, midnight

Midnight, midnight

Midnight, midnight

Take a midnight lap
