Two a.m… Windows down… Let’s disappear. Streetlights paint your cheek in gold, Radio low, secrets told. I’ve been a name on somebody’s tongue, But in this car, I’m just someone. Your hand finds mine like it’s always known, No stage, no flash, no posted proof. Only the freeway and the afterglow— And you pulling me back to truth. Don’t ask me to be perfect tonight, We can blur all the sharp white lights, Let the city chase what it can’t find— ‘Cause right now you’re mine. You’re my nightdrive halo, Glowin’ when the world goes black. Like a soft light in my shadow, You pull me in and pull me back. No headlines, no photo, Just your breath and the Cadillac. If I’m lost, you’re the way home— My nightdrive halo. Say it again, slow… nightdrive halo. Oh-oh… don’t let go… (halo) Blacktop romance, leather seat, Cherry lip balm, summer heat. I know you like the quiet part— Where you don’t gotta play a part. Everybody wants a piece of us, But I want the part that’s barely seen. The look you give when you finally hush— Like you’re safe inside the in-between. I can feel the tension melt, I can breathe like myself, Keep your secrets, I don’t need details— Just stay close… let it sail. You’re my nightdrive halo, Glowin’ when the world goes black. Like a soft light in my shadow, You pull me in and pull me back. No headlines, no photo, Just your breath and the Cadillac. If I’m lost, you’re the way home— My nightdrive halo. We pass the billboards, we pass the noise, We pass the versions they all enjoy. I like you here, where it’s just our sound— Where nobody gets to pin us down. If tomorrow’s loud, let it be loud, Tonight I’m small in the safest crowd. Your fingertips, a little faith— A gentle kind of getaway. No cameras. No questions. Just speed and confession. Engine hum like a lullaby, City fades in the rearview light. If they’re watchin’, let ‘em watch us go— We’re too far gone to move slow. You’re my nightdrive halo, Glowin’ when the world goes black. Like a soft light in my shadow, You pull me in and pull me back. No headlines, no photo, Just your heart on the out-run track. If I’m lost, you’re the way home— My nightdrive halo. Stay in the glow… Stay ‘til we’re home… …halo. Nightdrive halo.
