Lyric

Your hand rests lightly on the console

Warm air moving through the vents

You say my name like a secret

And I forget where we were headed

The overpass slips behind us

Rain beads race along the glass

No need to promise tomorrow

Stay close while this moment lasts

Take the long way, don't turn around

Let the silence pull us out of town

Every mile makes the room feel new

I can read the night through you

Come a little closer, let the distance disappear

Keep your eyes ahead, but leave your heartbeat here

We don't need a map, we don't need to know

Where this road is taking us, just don't let go

Your jacket carries cedar and smoke

The kind of scent that lingers on

You trace a circle on my knuckles

Like you already know what's gone

The radio fades to a whisper

Our reflections pass in pairs

You laugh and turn toward the window

But I can feel you looking there

Take the long way, don't turn around

Let the silence pull us out of town

Every mile makes the room feel new

I can read the night through you

Come a little closer, let the distance disappear

Keep your eyes ahead, but leave your heartbeat here

We don't need a map, we don't need to know

Where this road is taking us, just don't let go

If the morning finds us somewhere unfamiliar

Leave the keys beneath the seat

I would rather lose the hour with you

Than arrive too soon and miss the heat

Come a little closer, let the distance disappear

Keep your eyes ahead, but leave your heartbeat here

We don't need a map, we don't need to know

Where this road is taking us, just don't let go

Stay with me past the final exit

Let the road keep what we found

No destination, no explanation

Just your breathing, engine sound
