[Verse 1]
We’re talking in circles again
Same look, same edge
I feel my throat close up
So I don’t say what I’ll regret
You reach, I pull back
Not ‘cause I don’t care
I just can’t breathe in here
[Pre-Chorus] (whisper)
Let me get this out my head
Let me come back soft again
[Chorus]
I need highway air
On my skin
Need the night to rinse my head
Let me in
I need highway air
Just a mile or two
It’s not you I’m running from
It’s the heat in the room
I’ll be back, I swear
I just need highway air
[Verse 2]
Streetlights, blur lines
Hands tight on the wheel
Window down, cold rush
Now I can feel
I let the silence say
What I couldn’t say
I love you, but I need space
[Pre-Chorus] (whisper)
Let me get this out my head
Let me come back soft again
[Final Chorus]
I need highway air
On my skin
Need the night to rinse my head
Let me in
I need highway air
Just a mile or two
It’s not you I’m running from
It’s the heat in the room
I’ll be back, I swear
I just need highway air (repeat, then)
I’ll be back, I swear
I just need highway air
