[Intro] [male humming] Hm-hm-hm-hm-hm-hm-hm-hm-hm-hm-hm-hm-hm-hm-hm-hm [Verse 1] [open vowel chanting] Ah-ah-ah-ah-ah-ah-ah-ah-ah-ah-ah-ah-ah-ah-ah-ah-ah-ah-ah-ah-ah-ah-ah-ah The engine turns over in the quiet of the drive Counting yellow lines just to feel like I’m alive The passenger seat is heavy with your ghost In the midnight air, it’s what hurts the most. [Pre-Chorus] I push down on the pedal, heading nowhere in the dark Trying to outrun the shadow of a faded little spark I tell myself this highway leads to putting you behind But every exit sign just brings you back into my mind. [Chorus] [melodic syllables] La-ra-la-la-ra-la-la-la-ra-la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la It’s a joy-ride alone through the middle of the night Chasing down the tail-lights, looking for a light I’m hanging onto hope on a long and winding road Carrying a heart that doesn't know how to let go. [Verse 2] Static on the radio, playing songs we used to know I trace the steering wheel as the steady headlights glow It would be so much easier to pull off to the side Than to keep on burning fuel on this endless midnight ride. [Bridge] If we’re really at the end, why am I still driving fast? Trying to catch a vision of a love that didn't last I don't need a destination, I just need a sign To stop this joy-ride alone and leave the past behind. [Chorus] [melodic syllables] La-ra-la-la-ra-la-la-la-ra-la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la It’s a joy-ride alone through the middle of the night Chasing down the tail-lights, looking for a light I’m hanging onto hope on a long and winding road Carrying a heart that doesn't know how to let go. [Outro] [male humming] Hm-hm-hm-hm-hm-hm-hm-hm-hm-hm-hm-hm-hm-hm-hm-hm-hm-hm-hm-hm-hm-hm-hm-hm-hm-hm-hm-hm-hm-hm-hm-hm-hm-hm-hm-hm-hm-hm-hm-hm-hm-hm-hm-hm-hm-hm-hm-hm
