[Verse]
Driving down this lonesome highway tonight
Truck stops and whispers under the gas station light
Heart full of love but it’s dragging pain like a chain
Rolling on fumes with nothing to lose but a name
[Chorus]
Love burns wild like the weed in our veins
Ashes smoke high but it’s drowning the pain
Two voices rising in a world torn apart
A truck driver’s melody straight from the heart
[Verse 2]
Her silhouette lingered on the hood of my mind
Eyes like storm clouds and lips unrefined
The road calls her voice but it leaves me undone
She’s the night’s cigarette and the devil’s own sun
[Bridge]
This eighteen-wheeler carries more than freight
Heartache and stories under its tonnage weight
Each mile is a verse and each stop is a tear
She’s the ghost in the mirror keeping me clear
[Chorus]
Love burns wild like the weed in our veins
Ashes smoke high but it’s drowning the pain
Two voices rising in a world torn apart
A truck driver’s melody straight from the heart
[Verse 3]
Both of us singing but the song ain’t the same
Through static and rubber we blazed it with flame
Her laughter still echoes in the rearview tonight
But the pain rides shotgun on this midnight flight
