Midnight Drive to You

The moon's our only witness, stars sprinkle the sky,

The open road is empty, as I'm racing to your side,

Radio hums a slow tune, my heart beats in time,

With every mile that passes, I'm closer to the line.

The yellow lines keep flickering, like fireflies in June,

Wind whispers through the windows, carrying a lonely tune,

The scent of pine trees mingles with diesel and dust,

Every curve a promise, every turn a trust.

I'm driving through the night, just to see your face,

Miles melt beneath these wheels, can't wait for your embrace,

Headlights cut the darkness, like my heart cuts through the blue,

A midnight drive to you, darlin', it's the road that leads me true.

Coffee from the truck stop, bitterness and steam,

Reflections of your laughter, light up my midnight dreams,

The dashboard clock keeps ticking, but time it stands so still,

As I weave through sleepy towns, and cross another hill.

There's a picture on the dash, of you in that old dress,

The one you wore last summer, the night we first confessed,

Love's a highway leading, through deserts and through rain,

But the thought of you keeps burnin', like an eternal flame.

I'm driving through the night, just to see your face,

Miles melt beneath these wheels, can't wait for your embrace,

Headlights cut the darkness, like my heart cuts through the blue,

A midnight drive to you, darlin', it's the road that leads me true.
