[Verse 1]
Seven days apart, yeah it cut too deep
Late-night calls, but I still can’t sleep
Saw you through a screen, your boy’s laughter a flame
Wish I was there, but distance plays its game
Friday night lights, Jimmy Eat World in your veins
Ray by your side, but I still felt your name
Saturday mimosas, your family around
Your dad slipped me his number — still haven’t called him back down
[Pre-Chorus]
And I swear, when you turn and look my way
The chaos breaks, the night becomes day
[Chorus]
Lordy Lordy, look who’s forty
But damn, you wear it like glory
Raylen’s mom has got it going on
Every heartbeat sings your song
Dayseeker burned, Ice Nine chilled
But you’re the only one that gives me thrills
Every night apart just proves what’s real
This fire, this love, it’s all I feel
[Verse 2]
Raccoons and cubes, gifts wrapped in “I fucking love you”
Smutty gifts for the laughs, but baby it’s all true
Your face, your touch, it’s more than enough
Every moment with you feels dangerous, feels love
Ceasar salad and stares, we know where it goes
Not chasing waterfalls — I’ll drown in you close
Every breath, every cry, yeah it carves me alive
We come together, that’s when I survive
[Breakdown – heavy screams]
5AM cuts like knives
But we’re closer to another night
Every mile’s just a test of faith
One more morning till forever in your embrace
[Chorus – soaring repeat]
Lordy Lordy, look who’s forty
But damn, you wear it like glory
Raylen’s mom has got it going on
Every heartbeat sings your song
Dayseeker burned, Ice Nine chilled
But you’re the only one that gives me thrills
Every night apart just proves what’s real
This fire, this love, it’s all I feel
[Outro – haunting & melodic]
It’s just a reprieve, never goodbye
You and me, babe — forever’s in sight
One more morning, one more drive
One more reason we’re still alive
