Prompt / Lyrics
[Verse 1] Coffee in a paper cup Dashboard lit in faded green Kids’ drawings on the visor Their smiles riding here with me [Chorus] It’s just a truck and an empty four-lane highway Taillights gone a hundred miles behind I’m out here hauling someone else’s tomorrow While my whole world’s waiting on the line These lonely long miles Between your hand and mine [Verse 2] Radio’s a broken friend Same old song A different town FaceTime in a parking lot Signal cuts And then it’s gone back down [Chorus] It’s just a truck and an empty four-lane highway Taillights gone a hundred miles behind I’m out here hauling someone else’s tomorrow While my whole world’s waiting on the line These lonely long miles Between your hand and mine [Bridge] Some nights I swear I’ll park it Turn around and head for home (oh yeah) But morning finds me rolling Chasing paychecks Chasing roads [Chorus] It’s just a truck and an empty four-lane highway Taillights gone a hundred miles behind I’m out here hauling someone else’s tomorrow While my whole world’s waiting on the line These lonely long miles These lonely long miles Between your hand and mine

Warm Americana ballad with male vocals, brushed snare and gently rolling bass. Fingerpicked acoustic sits up front, soft organ pad underpins the verse; chorus opens with harmony stacks and a brighter electric guitar twang. Tempo relaxed but steady, like cruise control at night, with a subtle lift on each hook to feel like headlights cresting a hill.
