[Verse 1] The gate was rusted, the fuel light low A cold cup rolling where the loose tools go You said, “Are we certain?” I said, “Not tonight” But the road kept opening under the headlights [Pre-Chorus] Let the mile behind us lose its name Let the doubt ride quiet in the passing rain [Chorus] Hands on the wheel, eyes on the light We don’t need the ending to know what is right No map—just one more faithful mile A little more courage, a little less denial If the dark comes down, we’ll keep our line Hands on the wheel, eyes on the light [Verse 2] The bridge was narrow, the river ran hard The last good answer was left in the yard You held the silence like a match in your hand I heard your heartbeat say, “Do what you can” [Pre-Chorus] No promise waiting past the bend Just this road, this breath, this friend [Chorus] Hands on the wheel, eyes on the light We don’t need the ending to know what is right No map—just one more faithful mile A little more courage, a little less denial If the dark comes down, we’ll keep our line Hands on the wheel, eyes on the light [Bridge] When the engine strains and the windows shake When every choice feels like one more mistake We’ll choose the road that asks us to stand And leave tomorrow out of our hands [Guitar Solo] [Final Chorus] Hands on the wheel, eyes on the light We don’t need the ending to know what is right No map—just one more faithful mile A little more courage, a little less denial If the dark comes down, we’ll keep our line Hands on the wheel, eyes on the light Hands on the wheel, eyes on the light [Outro] One more faithful mile One more faithful mile
