[Intro] (Harmonica swell, soft radio static) Yeah… I still hear your voice when the night gets quiet Like an old song playing through the radio static [Verse 1] Dust on the dash, two-lane road, sunset gold You had your hand in mine, I was scared to let go Small-town heart with a city-sized dream You were laughing in the passenger seat at me We were broke, but baby, we felt rich Gas light on, but we didn't care a bit You said, “Wherever this road goes, I'm down” So I turned that old truck right out of town (Banjo plucks, snapped percussion) Now every mile marker knows your name Every backroad bends around that same old frame I got memories stacked like boxes in the hall But your picture's still hanging like it never left at all [Pre-Chorus] And I— I still feel you when the night gets cold Still hear “forever” in the words you told Oh, if I could turn back time somehow I'd be pulling that old truck over right now [Chorus] We were young, we were wild, we were right there Two hearts, one road, no fear Hey-oh, hey-oh, I still know Your name like a song on the radio Hey-oh, hey-oh, don't let go Even if the years keep rolling on You and me, somewhere between goodbye and home Still dancing in the radio static [Verse 2] Yeah, I remember that porch light glow Your mama yelling, “Girl, it's getting late, you know” I was laughing, you were sneaking out the door We were sixteen going on forevermore Had a little bit of trouble, little bit of pride Little too much gasoline and nowhere to hide You knew every crack in my old windshield I knew every secret you were scared to reveal Then life came fast like a train downtown Dreams got loud and we both got turned around You went west, I stayed here Funny how forever disappears But sometimes that old FM station Cuts through the silence like a time machine And for three minutes, maybe four I'm right back where we were before [Pre-Chorus] And I— I still feel you when the night gets cold Still hear “forever” in the words you told Oh, if I could turn back time somehow I'd be pulling that old truck over right now [Chorus] We were young, we were wild, we were right there Two hearts, one road, no fear Hey-oh, hey-oh, I still know Your name like a song on the radio Hey-oh, hey-oh, don't let go Even if the years keep rolling on You and me, somewhere between goodbye and home Still dancing in the radio static [Bridge] (Beat drops; close-mic vocal, guitar only) I never told you… I kept that old picture. Folded in the visor Right where you left it. And sometimes I drive that road alone Just to hear the tires hum And pretend for a minute You never got gone. (Tape-stop) Then the harmonica rises… Maybe some things don't really end Maybe they just fade into the wind [Final Chorus] (Full band, stacked harmonies, gang doubles) We were young, we were wild, we were right there Two hearts, one road, no fear HEY-OH, HEY-OH, I still know Your name like a song on the radio HEY-OH, HEY-OH, don't let go Even if the years keep rolling on You and me, somewhere between goodbye and home Still dancing in the radio static Yeah, somewhere between goodbye and home I still hear you when I'm driving alone Hey-oh, hey-oh… Still dancing in the radio static. [Outro] (Harmonica swells, acoustic guitar fades, soft radio static) “Wherever this road goes…” (static fades)
