Two Hearts, One Highway

We pulled out of that dusty town

With the moon stuck in the trees

Your jacket on the backseat

Still smells like gasoline

Stopped at that old diner

Where the waitress knows our names

Two coffees and a promise

We'll never be the same

And every mile we steal tonight

Feels like a prayer said wrong and right

'Cause it's just you and me

And this worn-out Chevrolet

Chasin' something bigger

Than the lives we tried to stay.

If the whole world's falling

We'll outrun it anyway

Two hearts on the backroads

One highway

You hummed along the radio

Some half-forgotten song

I traced the lines upon your hand

Like maps I'd followed all along

A gas station at midnight

Neon flicker on your face

You said, love ain't in the destination

It's in the getaway

And every fear we left behind

Is fading in the yellow lines

'Cause it's just you and me

And this worn-out Chevrolet

Chasing something bigger

Than the lives we tried to stay

If the whole world's falling

We'll outrun it anyway

Two hearts on the backroads

One highway

Maybe someday we'll settle down

Find a porch that feels like truth

But tonight the sky is wide enough

To hold the storm in me and you

Yeah, it's just you and me

And this worn-out Chevrolet

Carrying every hope we own

In what we dare to say.

Whatever comes tomorrow

We'll face it on the way

Two hearts on the backroads

One highway
