Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Dust on the dashboard glow
Map in the glove box
Torn
Your name in the rearview glass
Fading each mile we pass
Half of a Polaroid smile
Folded and frayed at the sides
I talk to the empty seat
Hope answers from the white lines
[Chorus]
In the shadow of forgotten stars
We chase the echo of a heartbeat lost
Calling your name into the dark
Hoping the silence pays the cost
If I drive far enough
Fast enough
Will the past turn back for us?
In the shadow of forgotten stars
We chase the echo of a heartbeat lost (oh)
[Verse 2]
Gas station coffee at two
Steam writing ghosts in the air
I swear I can feel you move
Each time I turn and you’re not there
Radio stuck on a song
That knew us better than we did
I kill it and hum along
Still singing like a foolish kid
[Chorus]
In the shadow of forgotten stars
We chase the echo of a heartbeat lost
Calling your name into the dark
Hoping the silence pays the cost
If I drive far enough
Fast enough
Will the past turn back for us?
In the shadow of forgotten stars
We chase the echo of a heartbeat lost
[Bridge]
What if you’re already home
Sleeping through this storm
What if I’m the only ghost
Still circling where we were born
I keep my foot on the floor
Eyes up
Hands shaking on the wheel
Trying to outrun the thought
That some heartbeats never heal
[Chorus]
In the shadow of forgotten stars
We chase the echo of a heartbeat lost
Calling your name into the dark
Hoping the silence pays the cost
If I love hard enough
Long enough
Will the night give you back to us?
In the shadow of forgotten stars
We chase the echo of a heartbeat lost
