(Verse 1) Cigarette glow in the midnight black, Smoke trails drawin’ the road we lack. Your laughter echoes from the shotgun seat, Now it’s just dust and a memory’s beat. (Pre-Chorus) If love burns slow, then ours burned long, But even long burns end up gone. (Chorus) Ashes on the dashboard, Like the promises we swore. Every mile takes me back to before, But the past don’t open that door. Ashes on the dashboard… fallin’ just like we did before. (Verse 2) Radio hummin’ our faded tune, Moon wearin’ thin like a silver wound. Your shadow flickers when the engine groans, Loneliness barkin’ through dial tones. (Bridge) 808s rumble under old regrets, Dust storms rise where the sun sets. (Chorus) Ashes on the dashboard… (Outro) And I’m still drivin’ toward a ghost I can’t ignore.
