(Verse 1)Pack the bags in the dark of the night Don't turn around, just follow the light Hold my hand, baby, don't look back We left the shadow of his hands on the track The engine is humming, the highway is wide Two generations sitting side by side (Chorus)And you're the Thelma to my Louise We’re running fast with the midnight breeze Through every court date and every tear We’ll build a life out of all this fear They can’t break what they couldn’t keep We wake up strong while the old ghosts sleep Side by side till the trouble clears You’re the Thelma to my Louise, my dear (Verse 2)The grocery store line, checking the change Learning to live where it doesn't feel strange No more walking on broken glass Counting the days as the triggers pass You caught my shake when my voice gave out You are the faith in the middle of doubt (Chorus)And you're the Thelma to my Louise We’re running fast with the midnight breeze Through every court date and every tear We’ll build a life out of all this fear They can’t break what they couldn’t keep We wake up strong while the old ghosts sleep Side by side till the trouble clears You’re the Thelma to my Louise, my dear (Bridge)Unlike the movie, we’re not hitting the brakes We’re surviving the wreckage and all the mistakes We aren't driving over the edge of the wild Just a warrior mother and a brave-hearted child The healing is heavy, the mountain is steep But we’ve got a promise we’re going to keep (Guitar Solo / Instrumental Break) (Chorus)Yeah, you're the Thelma to my Louise We’re standing tall through the cold degrees Through the therapy rooms and the moving vans We hold the future right here in our hands They can’t break what they couldn’t keep We wake up strong while the old ghosts sleep Side by side till the trouble clears You’re the Thelma to my Louise, my dear (Outro)Keep driving, baby The road is ours now No more hiding, baby Look at us now Thelma and Louise... We made it out
