still working on a duet..... ( work in progress with prompting)

Verse 1 – Male] I been drivin’ past the county line Headlights cuttin’ through a life I left behind Got your name in a bottle on the seat Every mile just drags me back to where we meet [Verse 2 – Female] You always ran like a stolen train Chasin’ ghosts in every drop of rain I stayed put in a house of rust Built on broken dreams and whiskey dust [Pre-Chorus – Both] We were fire in a midnight storm Too wild to hold, too lost to mourn [Chorus – Both (Harmony)] We’re whiskey and dust, we fade, we burn Crash and collide at every turn You pull away, I pull you close We love like sinners, we hurt the most Yeah we’re whiskey and dust, no road is home Just hearts half-broke and miles to roam [Verse 3 – Male] Saw your shadow in a roadside bar Same old song on a busted guitar I almost called but I bit my tongue Some words die better left unsung [Verse 4 – Female] I heard your truck in a dream last night Faded in with the neon light I woke up cold, reached for your side But loneliness don’t ever lie [Bridge – Female → Male response] Female: You were never mine to save Male: You were never meant to stay Female: Still I carved you in my soul Male: Like a wound that won’t let go [Final Chorus – Both (Bigger, Grittier)] We’re whiskey and dust, we fade, we burn Crash and collide at every turn You pull away, I pull you close We love like sinners, we hurt the most Yeah we’re whiskey and dust, cursed and free A broken “us” is all we’ll ever be [Outro – Both, soft] Just whiskey… and dust… That’s all that’s left of us
