[Verse 1]
Old ball cap on the dash
Dust still sittin’ on my boots
You said “drive, don’t ask”
Bare feet on my leather seat, cherry on your lips, that truth
Moon hangin’ like a porch light
Your laugh cuttin’ through the dark air
You sang along off-key
I kept peekin’ at your face more than the road out there
[Chorus]
Summer nights hit different with you
Windows down, past curfew
Heartbeats kick like a buckin’ tune
Boom in the back, I’m lost in you
Yeah these backroads feel like headlines
Every curve, your hand finds mine
If this is wrong, I’ll cross that line
Summer nights hit different with you
[Verse 2]
Gas gauge flirtin’ with E
You said, “Boy, we’ll ride on hope”
Static on the late-night preachers
We changed the sermon to our joke
You drew hearts in the fogged glass
Said, “Promise you won’t disappear”
I ain’t good with fancy words
Just pulled you close and drove straight through the fear
[Chorus]
[Bridge]
[low vocal register] Skies get cold, and crowds get loud
We might fade like county fair sound
But right now, this old truck’s our town
Your hair in my face, my guard torn down
[falsetto ad-lib] Oh, don’t blink, don’t blink
We’re a wildfire on the brink
If all we ever get is this
I’ll replay every breath, every kiss
[Chorus]
