Empty Highway

Verse 1

Morning breaks on a cracked motel sign

Suitcases stacked on the faded linoleum

Coffee steam curling round your hand in mine

We trade dreams before the day begins

Pre-Chorus

Promises made as the world wakes slow

Maps on the dash, nowhere to be

Chasing a dawn only we’ll ever know

Following hope down a broken street

Chorus

Two shadows on an empty highway

We found love in the rearview light

Wheels roll on through the cold and the gray

But your hand in mine feels right

Verse 2

Drifting through towns with names we forget

Old songs play on rusted radios

Stories we carry, a past full of debt

You smile and somehow the weight goes

Pre-Chorus

Every mile, every fight, every tear that we hide

Got lost on this ribbon of tar

When you turn and you laugh, in the glow of the night

It don't matter where we are

Chorus

Two shadows on an empty highway

We found love in the rearview light

Wheels roll on through the cold and the gray

But your hand in mine feels right

Chorus

Two shadows on an empty highway

We found love in the rearview light

Wheels roll on through the cold and the gray

But your hand in mine feels right
