Rust on the Radio

Windows down

Maps on the floor

No set plan

Just the hum and the roar

Coffee in a paper cup

You draw suns on my hand

You say, "Point anywhere"

I say, "Baby, I can"

We got duct tape on the speakers

Old shirts for a pillow

State lines like jump ropes

We leap as they ripple

Rust on the radio

Hearts on the dashboard, letting it go

Let it go, let it go

Laugh till we choke on the air we steal

This old van makes the future feel real

Rust on the radio

Singing too loud to the static glow

If we break down on some dead-end road

That’s just one more story we’ll never outgrow

Flip-flops on the gas pedal

Bare feet on the seat

You’re rapping over my nonsense

Turn my stumbles into beats

Burger bags, roadside fruit stand

Polaroids in a shaky hand

You kiss me at the red light

Light turns green, we still stand

You ask, "What if this all fades?"

I say, "So what if it does?"

We paint our names on canyon walls

Let the wind mess it up

Every wrong turn, every late night

Every cheap motel fight

If I’m lost between the sunrise

I want you on my right side

Oh, oh, oh

Shout it from the backseat

Oh, oh, oh

This is everything we need

Rust on the radio

Hearts on the dashboard, letting it go

Laugh till we choke on the air we steal

This old van makes the future feel real

Rust on the radio

Singing too loud to the static glow

If we break down on some dead-end road

That’s just one more story we’ll never outgrow
