County Line Nights

There’s a two-lane road running out past the pines Where we used

to park up and waste our time You’d steal my jacket,

I’d steal your kiss Funny how I still remember nights like this

Your name’s still carved in that old oak tree Right next to

where you said you’d never leave Guess forever only lasted till July

Now I see your headlights when I close my eyes

And I know

I should let you go

But these backroads always seem to know

Every county line I cross Feels like I’m getting further lost From

the girl I swore I’d never miss From the nights that tasted

just like this Got your memory riding shotgun

And your old blue jeans in the back of my truck

Yeah, I keep driving,

but I don’t know why When every road just leads me back

to you tonight

There’s a gas station where we used to meet Cheap black coffee

and your bare feet You’d laugh when I said I’d get us

out Now I’m halfway gone and I’m still thinking about That little

house with the porch light on Where we thought the summer would

never be gone You said,

“Promise me you won’t change” Funny how growing up feels so strange

Maybe someday I'll hear your name And it won't hit me quite

the same Maybe I'll park where we used to be And finally

let those memories leave But tonight there's a full moon hanging low

And I've got nowhere I need to go

So I'll turn that radio up loud

And disappear into

this little town

Every county line I cross I don't care how much it costs

I'm still chasing something I can't find Somewhere between your heart and

mine Got your memory riding shotgun

And the old days calling when the night comes

Yeah, I keep driving till the morning light Still hoping somehow

I'll see you tonight

There's a two-lane road running out past the pines

And I'm still driving it from time to time

Maybe I'm lost, maybe that's alright Some roads aren't meant to lead

you home at night
