Something Good After Midnight

[Verse 1]
You text
“you up?”
I’m already in my boots
Half tank
Half sane
But I’m heading straight to you
Two lanes
One thought
Flying by the county line
Your porch light burning
Like it’s reading my mind
[Chorus]
Something good after midnight
Always starts with a “you awake?”
Little risk in the rearview
Little heart on the interstate
We say “this is the last time”
Then we fall like it’s our first try
Something bad on our timeline
Something good after midnight
[Verse 2]
Your dog starts to bark
Then remembers who I am
Bare legs
Big shirt
You’re laughing as you slam
That screen door
Slow motion
Pull me in before I speak
Your hair smells like trouble
And your kiss knocks out my knees (oh yeah)
[Chorus]
Something good after midnight
Always starts with a “you awake?”
Little risk in the rearview
Little heart on the interstate
We say “this is the last time”
Then we fall like it’s our first try
Something bad on our timeline
Something good after midnight
[Bridge]
Maybe we’re a bad idea
That I can’t stop loving
Maybe it’s the wrong time
Right touch
Keeps me coming
Sun’s gonna catch us
But we’ll lie and say we tried
Can’t quit the way your name
Sounds tangled with “goodbye”
[Chorus]
Something good after midnight
Always starts with a “you awake?”
Little risk in the rearview
Little heart on the interstate
We say “this is the last time”
But your hands say “give it one more try”
Yeah we’re wrong in the daylight
But we’re right after midnight

Verses keep a dusty, intimate vibe; choruses explode with gang vocals, slide guitar swells, and big sing-along hooks. Subtle organ pad glues everything, with a short, gritty lead guitar break before the final chorus., alternative country, rhythmic, country, male vocals, country rock, pop, electric
