Clock on the dash says 9: 02 Sky bleedin' red like it always do Radio hummin' some heartbreak tune I swear they wrote that song for you Left your town with a half-tank dream Still smell the smoke in my worn-out jeans We were fire before we were free Now I'm burnin' gas tryna find that heat
Every sign says: Slow it down But my heart don't hear that sound
I'm racin' to you like faith to a sinner, like A last shot before it is daylight Thunder rollin' through the rain Like a fool that can't quit sayin' your name If love's a road, I'm halfway through If there's a heaven, it looks like you Every mile just proves it's true I'm racin', I'm racin' to you
I'm racin', I'm racin' to you Ah
Gas station glow in a one-horse town Told that clerk, I ain't slowin' down Said, Girl, you can't outrun what's gone I said, Watch me prove you wrong Got your letter in the glove box dust Said you still think of us I don't know where your heart moved to But I'm bettin' it's close to the Moon
Every sign says, Slow it down But my heart don't hear that sound
I'm racin' to you like faith to a sinner, like Songbird screamin' at window light Lightning searchin' for a tree, like God's own hand pushin' me If love's a road, I'm halfway through If there's a heaven, it looks like you Every mile just proves it's true I'm racin', I'm racin' to you
I'm racin', I'm racin' to you Ah
Shadow's bendin' to find its way I've been drivin' through a fade all day Every prayer hit the same sky blue Every wish comes down to you
I'm racin' to you like fire to air, like Hope to the one still there If love's a storm, I'm the flood that grew If the end is in sight, I'll see it through If the road don't end, I'll start anew 'Cause home ain't home unless it's you
Yeah, every mile just proves it's true I'm racin', I'm racin' to you I'm racin', I'm racin' to you Ah
