[Intro] [lead guitar in octaves, call-and-response] Sun going down Dust on the mirror, on the dash Your name Caught in the back of my throat [Verse 1] Old brown boots By the back door where you left them Coffee cup ring On the counter by your note Radio hums Same sad song you used to sing to I turn it down But your echo doesn’t go [Chorus] You’re on my mind tonight Like a ghost in the porch light Like a prayer I keep saying wrong You’re on my mind tonight Every mile, every stop sign Like a word hanging on my tongue Can’t shake the taste of goodbye You’re on my mind tonight [Verse 2] I pass that bar Neon beer sign through the treeline That June night glow On your cheekbones when you laughed We talked too long In the bed of your old pickup Said “see you soon” Didn’t know it was the last [Chorus] [Bridge 1] [band drops, ambient pads swell] Tell me, are you staring at the ceiling too? Tracing all the could’ve, all the should’ve we blew I keep reaching For a hand that’s not here Still feels near [Verse 3] Friends all say Time will turn this into “remember” I nod along Change the subject, sip my drink But every joke Has an aftertaste of almost Every smile Has a space where you should be [Chorus] [Bridge 2] [low vocal register, fingerpicked guitar] If I called you now Would it open up an old wound? Or would you laugh Say you still hum that same tune? I keep dialing In my head, then I freeze Heart on its knees [Verse 4] Moon climbs high Painting silver on the gravel Screen door creaks Like it’s waiting for your boots I lock it twice Like I’m keeping in a secret Truth is, babe I’m just locking in the proof [Chorus] [Bridge 3] [crescendo, full band] Maybe the road Will bend our lines together again Maybe this ache Is just love learning to mend Till that day comes I ride the quiet and the noise Your name, my choice [Outro] [lead guitars echo vocal melody in octaves] On my mind tonight Soft as the dust in the headlight shine On my mind tonight Fade of your laugh in the pines On my mind On my mind tonight
