[Verse 1]
I found your note beneath the coffee tin,
Three crooked lines and a promise folded in.
The clock struck quarter after nine,
I grabbed one suitcase and a borrowed ride.

You said, "Prove that this time you won't quit,"
So I took the road with the radio lit.
Every mile marker blurred into a sign:
Quit running scared, it's time to cross that line.

[Pre-Chorus]
I kept my hands at ten and two,
Told myself I was passing through.
But every mile made one thing clear:
The life I want is waiting there.

[Chorus]
I'm coming back for you tonight,
With a little dust and a lot of fight.
If the door is locked, I'll call your name,
If the window's dark, I'll do the same.
I spent too long pretending I was fine,
Now your hand is the only finish line.
I'm coming back, I'm coming back for you,
And this time I'll follow through.

[Verse 2]
The motel sign was missing half its blue,
A waitress poured black coffee like she knew.
She asked me why I kept checking the door,
I said, "I'm done running like before."

Then your old song came through the kitchen door,
The one we played on our apartment floor.
I paid the bill, stepped out into the cold,
And chose the road I should have chosen before.

[Pre-Chorus]
No more excuses in my coat,
No more letters I never wrote.
I've got your address in my hand,
This time I'm driving till I stand.

[Bridge]
If you need a reason, I'll give you the truth:
Every hard goodbye kept pointing to you.
I don't need a map, I don't need a sign,
Just one honest chance to make it right.

[Final Chorus]
I'm coming back for you tonight,
Let the whole town hear me cross that line.
If the door is locked, I'll call your name,
If the window's dark, I'll do the same.
I spent too long pretending I was fine,
Now your hand is the only finish line.
I'm coming back, I'm coming back for you,
And this time I'll follow through.

[Outro]
Quarter after nine, the engine cools,
Your door, your name, that's the only rule.
I'm coming back, I'm coming back for you.
