Lyrics
[Verse 1]
You had your hand on the latch, half in the hall
I was still talking like that could fix it all
Your suitcase leaned by the frame like a threat
And the truck outside was shaking in the midnight sweat
I watched your eyes on the floorboard, then on the rain
You said my name like a bruise and a prayer the same
I should've said stay, but I just stood there still
While the engine in the driveway kept its patient will
[Pre-Chorus]
Now the tires keep turning in my head
Every mile we left behind, I’m still there instead
That seat’s got your shape in the cracked-up leather
And I swear I can’t outrun that moment ever
[Chorus]
You were one step away, one hand on the door
I’m on my mind, and I’m on your floor
Riding that line where the last words fall
You almost left the room, and I felt it all
You were one step away, one breath from gone
Now I drive these miles with your ghost turned on
Every bend in the road, every dash of the lane
I’m on my mind, and you’re on my brain
[Verse 2]
I pass that diner by the county line
Where you cried in the passenger seat one time
Your face in the window, my bad jokes flat
The kind of silence that don’t give nothing back
There’s a dent in the door from my old slam
A little proof that I never knew what I had
Now every red barn and every gravel turn
Tells me the same thing I had to learn
[Pre-Chorus]
Now the tires keep turning in my head
Every mile we left behind, I’m still there instead
That seat’s got your shape in the cracked-up leather
And I swear I can’t outrun that moment ever
[Chorus]
You were one step away, one hand on the door
I’m on my mind, and I’m on your floor
Riding that line where the last words fall
You almost left the room, and I felt it all
You were one step away, one breath from gone
Now I drive these miles with your ghost turned on
Every bend in the road, every dash of the lane
I’m on my mind, and you’re on my brain
[Bridge]
If I could rewind that gravel under the wheels
I’d pull you close, say the thing that heals
But time keeps rolling like that old truck bed
And I keep hearing what I should’ve said
(Should’ve said)
[Chorus]
You were one step away, one hand on the door
I’m on my mind, and I’m on your floor
Riding that line where the last words fall
You almost left the room, and I felt it all
You were one step away, one breath from gone
Now I drive these miles with your ghost turned on
Every bend in the road, every dash of the lane
I’m on my mind, and you’re on my brain
