[Into] [Verse 1] Dust in the sunset, Ferris wheel turning You said you'd be back — never showed at the diner My boots kept the beat on the gravel below But your name stayed loud in the July glow [Chorus] No no baby, whispered in the firelight Your shadow flickers in red-white-blue night No no darling, I tried to let you go But your name melted under the Midway show [Interlude] [Verse 2] Lemonade sweet, your laugh in the crowd You held me close when the sky cracked loud Cotton candy lips, your hoodie on my skin Every step away pulls me back in [Bridge] That postcard town, quiet after the ride Your old Ford truck and a Fourth of July I tell myself it’s time to forget But your echo plays in the fireworks yet [Final Chorus] No no baby, you’re still in the air Drifting with smoke and the county fair No no darling, that night won’t fade Like your name in lights — then gone by day [Outro] [End]
