Lyrics
[Intro] "Yeah… it’s 3 AM…
The city’s asleep, but the ghosts ain’t.
Every street got a memory…
Every shadow got a story to tell."
[Verse 1] Yeah, it’s 3 AM, the city lights fade,
Streetlamps hum like a lullaby in the rain.
I been countin’ blessings, but the weight still there,
Silhouettes in the rearview, memories we shared.
She said, “Boy, you wildin’,” I just sighed and lied,
Said, “Nah, I’m good,” but the truth hit like a tide.
Every scar on my soul got a story to tell,
Every late-night drive got a lesson as well.
And the radio playin’ our song on repeat,
Static in the speakers like a heartbeat so weak.
I could pull over, but the road call my name,
Like the pavement know my heartache by heart.
[Pre-Chorus] And I swear I been tryin’ to rewrite the past,
But the ink keep smudgin’ like the memories last.
I could drown in the sorrow, but I’m tryna float,
‘Cause the night got a way of healin’ what the day don’t.
[Chorus 1] It’s a midnight reflection, yeah, I’m talkin’ to the sky,
Askin’ God for forgiveness, tryna find where I lie.
Every shadow got a voice, every ghost got a name,
But the dawn always comes, yeah, it washes away the pain.
[Verse 2] I been countin’ blessings, but the nights get long,
Every “what if” got a voice, singin’ me a song.
She was my muse, now she just a ghost in the rearview,
I could chase, but the past ain’t tryna be pursued.
I been tryna heal, but the scars still show,
Like a tattoo of heartbreak that I can’t let go.
And the city sleeps, but the demons don’t,
They just whisper in the static of the radio’s hum.
Yeah, I see her in the diner where we used to eat,
In the way the waitress pours the coffee, slow and sweet.
I could order somethin’, but my throat won’t let me,
‘Cause the past got a way of chokin’ every memory.
[Pre-Chorus] And I swear I been tryin’ to rewrite the past,
But the ink keep smudgin’ like the memories last.
I could drown in the sorrow, but I’m tryna float,
‘Cause the night got a way of healin’ what the day don’t.
[Chorus 2] It’s a midnight reflection, yeah, I’m talkin’ to the sky,
Askin’ God for forgiveness, tryna find where I lie.
Every shadow got a voice, every ghost got a name,
But the dawn always comes, yeah, it washes away the pain.
[Bridge] "You ever feel like you’re standin’ still while the world move on?
Like the love you lost got a life of its own?
I ain’t askin’ for much, just a sign, just a clue,
‘Cause the night ain’t forever… but damn, it feels like it is."
"Yeah… I just need a minute…
Just one more minute…
To figure it all out."
[Verse 3] Now I’m drivin’ through the city, windows down, no disguise,
Every neon sign got a memory in disguise.
That diner where we ate, that park where we kissed,
Now it’s just a GPS markin’ a place I can’t resist.
I could call her up, but what’s the use?
Some wounds too deep for a phone call to excuse.
So I’ll keep drivin’, keep the engine runnin’,
Keep the past in the rearview where it belong, nothin’ new.
And the stars align like they useta do,
When we’d lay in the bed and make wishes come true.
Now it’s just me and the moon, keepin’ me company,
Whisperin’ “Boy, you grown… but you still ain’t free.”
[Chorus 3] It’s a midnight reflection, yeah, I’m talkin’ to the sky,
Askin’ God for forgiveness, tryna find where I lie.
Every shadow got a voice, every ghost got a name,
But the dawn always comes, yeah, it washes away the pain.
[Outro] Yeah, the city sleeps, but the stars stay awake,
Whisperin’ secrets that only the lonely can take.
And I’ll keep drivin’, keep searchin’, keep prayin’ for light,
‘Cause the night ain’t forever… but tonight, it’s mine.
“Tonight… it’s mine.”
