Open Road, Open Heart

[Verse 1]
Threw your hoodie in the back seat
That old town in the rearview glass
Lipstick smudge on a coffee cup
Guess that’s the last of the last
Got my boots on your dashboard
Sunburn lines and a crooked grin
Thought I’d be crying on the shoulder
But I’m laughing as the miles roll in (oh)
[Chorus]
Open road
Open heart
Turning all this hurt into a brand‑new start
Windows down
Hair wild in the wind
I’m dancing on the edge of what we could’ve been
You were the storm
I was the spark
Now the beat of my heels is my favorite part
Every mile
Every song in the dark
Open road
Open heart
[Verse 2]
Gas-station flowers on the counter
I buy my own just to prove I can
Sing along loud to a stranger’s love song
Twirl alone
Still take up all this land
Your name pops up on my phone screen
Little ghost in the glove box light
I let it ring
Toss it on the seat
Then I stomp on the gas and I come alive (hey!)
[Chorus]
Open road
Open heart
Turning all this hurt into a brand‑new start
Windows down
Hair wild in the wind
I’m dancing on the edge of what we could’ve been
You were the storm
I was the spark
Now the beat of my heels is my favorite part
Every mile
Every song in the dark
Open road
Open heart
[Bridge]
Used to spin in your arms in the kitchen
Now I spin under wide open sky
Every wrong turn felt like an ending
Till I learned how it feels to drive
So I two‑step over the heartbreak
Let the white lines lead me on
If losing you gave me this runway
Baby
I’m already gone (woah)
[Chorus]
Open road
Open heart
Turning all this hurt into a brand‑new start
Windows down
Hair wild in the wind
I’m dancing on the edge of what we could’ve been
You were the storm
I was the spark
Now the beat of my heels is my favorite part
Every mile
Every song in the dark
Open road
Open heart
