[Verse 1] I found your note in the glove box Bent up, stuck in the sun Four words and a bad old parking pass Now look what that started, hun You said, "meet me by the paper moon" I still know the road by heart Got your laugh in the back of my head And a map on the dash apart [Pre-Chorus] And the engine shakes When I think of you My hands go cold Then the miles come through [Chorus] Paper moon drive Take me back tonight Paper moon drive Burning in my mind One more turn And I’m alive Paper moon drive Paper moon drive [Verse 2] Your red boots by the front step My keys in a chipped blue bowl We were all sharp edges and first loves Two kids with a borrowed goal Now the corner store’s got a new sign But the same old cracked front glass I pull up slow like a bad rumor And hope that the feeling lasts [Pre-Chorus] And the engine shakes When I think of you My hands go cold Then the miles come through [Chorus] Paper moon drive Take me back tonight Paper moon drive Burning in my mind One more turn And I’m alive Paper moon drive Paper moon drive [Bridge] If I lose my way Meet me halfway By the creekside fence And the rusted gate I still hear you say "Don’t you disappear" So I drive it out Till you feel near [Final Chorus] Paper moon drive Take me back tonight Paper moon drive Burning in my mind One more turn And I’m alive Paper moon drive Paper moon drive Paper moon drive Paper moon drive
