[Verse 1]
Small town Friday, same four roads
Same old stories, same old jokes
You pulled up in that beat-up Ford
Said, "You in or what?
Let’s outrun getting bored"
[Chorus]
Highway love escape
Windows down, hearts wide awake
Banjo chasing every mistake
While the white lines blur our names
Highway love escape
Kissing at the red light, laughing at fate
If it all burns out, it still feels great
Highway love, highway love escape
[Verse 2]
Gas station coffee, cherry lip gloss
Old map crumpled on the dashboard
You turned up that late-night show
Said, "Pick a number, any exit
Anywhere you wanna go"
[Chorus]
Highway love escape
Windows down, hearts wide awake
Banjo chasing every mistake
While the white lines blur our names
Highway love escape
Kissing at the red light, laughing at fate
If it all burns out, it still feels great
Highway love, highway love escape
[Bridge]
Maybe we’re a short story
Scrawled on a motel page (oh-oh)
But your hand in mine
Feels like forever today
If tomorrow comes
And we don’t feel the same
We’ll still have that sky
And this runaway
[Chorus]
Highway love escape
Windows down, hearts wide awake
Banjo chasing every mistake
While the white lines blur our names
Highway love escape
Singing off-key to a song we made
If it all burns out, I’m glad we played
Highway love, highway love escape
