Gravel Road Haze

Verse 1

Fog rolls down the gravel road

Headlights cuttin through the haze

Your voice is cracklin on the radio

Callin out through southern days

I drove all night to find your door

The moon hung low like a lantern there

Your windows dark your heart unsure

But I left my worries on the stair

Pre-Chorus

And the fire burns slow

Honey let it show

Chorus

I wanna be your gasoline flame

Burning slow in the cool night rain

I wanna be the one who stays

When the morning cracks and the world decays

Verse 2

Your mama said I was trouble born

Your daddy laughed at my cheap guitar

But every chord I ever strummed

Was written underneath your star

The screen door slammed like a warning shot

The porch light buzzed like a June bug swarm

I held my breath the whole way back

Ain't nothin ever felt so warm

Pre-Chorus

And the fire burns low

Honey let it go

Chorus

I wanna be your gasoline flame

Burning slow in the cool night rain

I wanna be the one who stays

When the morning cracks and the world decays

Bridge

Summer's over and the birds all gone

The hills are turnin rusty red

But I'm still humming that same old song

With your name humming in my head

Chorus

I wanna be your gasoline flame

Burning slow in the cool night rain

I wanna be the one who stays

When the morning cracks and the world decays
