[Intro] Turn it down Turn it down Mmm, baby, turn it down [Verse 1] Headlights bend on the county road Your hands at ten and two I’ve got my knees pulled to my chest Like there’s nowhere else to move You said enough back in the driveway I said less than I meant Now the tires keep a steady time For all the words we spent [Pre-Chorus] And some woman on the radio Is singing, “Don’t let go” But you don’t look at me And I don’t say I know [Chorus] So turn the radio down It’s talking too loud for us now Every song sounds like a promise We already broke somehow Turn the radio down Let the silence come around If you can’t tell me you love me Don’t let strangers sing it now Turn the radio down [Verse 2] There’s coffee cooling in a paper cup Between my side and yours The dashboard glows like candlelight On all our little wars A semi passes, shakes the glass Like thunder in the lane For half a mile I almost laugh Then swallow it again [Pre-Chorus] And some boy with a velvet voice Keeps begging for one more chance But you just watch the yellow lines Like they’re teaching you a dance [Chorus] So turn the radio down It’s talking too loud for us now Every song sounds like a promise We already broke somehow Turn the radio down Let the silence come around If you can’t tell me you love me Don’t let strangers sing it now Turn the radio down [Post-Chorus] Down, down, down Till I can hear you breathing Down, down, down Till I know you’re still here [Bridge] Maybe love is not a fire Maybe love is just the ride Past the farms and filling stations With your anger at my side Maybe I don’t want an answer Maybe you don’t want the truth Maybe all the songs are lying Or maybe they’re singing proof And if we pull into the morning With nothing left to say Will you kiss me at the doorway Or just watch me walk away? [Chorus] Turn the radio down It’s talking too loud for us now Every song sounds like forever In a car that’s breaking down Turn the radio down Let the silence wear the crown If you can’t tell me you need me Don’t let strangers sing it now [Final Chorus] Turn the radio down There’s nothing sweet in that sound Just a choir full of lovers Who don’t know we’re losing ground Turn the radio down Let the dark road turn around If you can’t tell me you love me Don’t let strangers sing it now Turn the radio down [Outro] Turn it down Turn it down The night is long enough Turn it down Turn it down Don’t make it sound like love Turn it down Mmm, baby, turn it down
