[Intro]
Window hums, blue light spills across the dash
I’m counting miles while the engine softly crashes
A quiet scene, a lone silhouette in chrome
Chasing a road that never signs a home
[Verse]
Beard catching shadows from a striped afternoon sun
Hat dark as midnight, sunglasses hiding the run
Flannel sleeves cradle the pulse of a quiet pride
Seatbelt crossing stories I keep locked inside
Blue and white like a confession on a thread
Gray tee whispers secrets I barely said
The car yawns forward, a listening chest
Every turn a question, every stop a test
[Chorus]
Drive, drive, through the glow of the streetlight glow
Hold on to the heartbeat that only you know
Drive, drive, let the miles tell you who you are
In the rearview, secrets scatter like stars
[Verse]
Hands steady on the wheel, a weathered map’s design
Windows frame the weathered lines of time
Interior breathing with a patient, patient slow
Horizon leaning in, begging to know where you go
Plaid shirt catching wind like a flag in the gust
Quiet conversations turning into gusts of trust
Seatbelt’s a promise, a line drawn in the air
Between what you once were and what you’ll become there
[Chorus]
Drive, drive, through the glow of the streetlight glow
Hold on to the heartbeat that only you know
Drive, drive, let the miles tell you who you are
In the rearview, secrets scatter like stars
[Bridge]
If the road remembers every step you took
If the glass holds echoes of the stories you shook
Let the engine sing what your mouth won’t say
Let the wind rewrite the questions of today
[Chorus]
Drive, drive, through the glow of the streetlight glow
Hold on to the heartbeat that only you know
Drive, drive, let the miles tell you who you are
In the rearview, secrets scatter like stars
[Outro]
Headrest fades, the window keeps the scene in view
A quiet vow to keep moving toward something true
