RAINY NIGHTS AND BRAKES (Verse 1) Rain keeps falling on the windshield tonight, Lightning cuts across the darkened sky. The wipers keep time to a lonely song, As the truck rolls steady, mile after mile along. Red lights glowing somewhere up ahead, Brakes are singing while the storm is spread. The wind keeps pushing, the road fights back, But a trucker's heart never leaves the track. (Pre-Chorus) And when the heavens seem ready to fall, There's always a reason to answer the call. One more mile, one more load, A driver's soul belongs to the road. (Chorus) Rainy nights and screaming brakes, A thousand miles are ours to take. Through the storm and through the night, We keep rolling with all our might. Portuguese Truckers Dark Riders, Brothers of the highway until daylight comes. While the world is looking for shelter, We're still moving, one by one. (Verse 2) Coffee warms these tired hands, While the storm keeps crossing distant lands. In the mirrors, fading lights disappear, But the will to arrive is stronger than fear. Every curve holds a story untold, Every journey turns experience into gold. Even when the road becomes rough and cold, Brotherhood makes us brave and bold. (Bridge) Some see only rain pouring down, We see another chance to drive through the sound. The highway runs deep within our veins, And no storm can break these chains. (Final Chorus) Rainy nights and roaring brakes, Engines running with no mistakes. Portuguese Truckers Dark Riders, Born to ride whatever it takes. When the sunrise breaks the sky, Another battle will be left behind. And the road will whisper once again: "Well done, brother... keep the line." (Outro) Rain on the glass... Engine alive... Another long night... Another reason to drive.
