Home in the Headlights - Harbor Lights (Pop Rock, Alternative Rock)

Описание: [Intro]
Streetlight stutters on the windshield
Like a film I've seen before
Key turns, the engine answers
With that steady, faithful roar
Tonight the road is holding me
Like it always did

[Verse 1]
Mile marker leaning
Like it's waved me by for years
Coffee cooling in the cup holder
Static in my mirror
Cracked map in the glove box
Still folded to this town
But the dash glow on my knuckles
Says I don't have to turn around

[Pre-Chorus]
Could've taken the side streets
But the radio keeps flickering
Like a match struck in the dark
And the farther that I go
The lighter my hands feel

[Chorus]
Home in the headlights
All I need's that yellow line
Every exit sign
Just another porch light passing by
Home in the headlights
Where the endings feel alright
Windows down
Same old song
I've been living in the drive all night

[Verse 2]
Old tape humming
Got your laughter on the breeze
Your jacket on the back seat
Still talks soft to me
Gas gauge flirting with empty
But my heart feels overfull
Every chorus we once shouted
Rides along
Pulling me through

[Pre-Chorus]
There's a diner off the highway
Where we used to stop and stare
Like it wasn't going anywhere
Now I pass it in the moonlight
And I finally understand

[Chorus]
Home in the headlights
All I need's that yellow line
Every exit sign
Just another porch light passing by
Home in the headlights
Where the endings feel alright
Windows down
Same old song
I've been living in the drive all night

[Verse 3]
Late-night diner neon
Blinking "Open" just for me
The waitress calls me "honey"
Like she knows what I've been through
And I laugh a little easier
When the coffee tastes like new

[Verse 4]
Sunrise on the horizon
Turns the asphalt into gold
Harbor lights in the distance
Like a story being told
I used to chase a destination
Now I count the miles I make

[Pre-Bridge]
There's a morning coming gently
Through the cracks in yesterday
And the road keeps rolling forward
Like it knows a better way
If I miss you, I can miss you
And still let the wheel turn true
'Cause the love we had keeps riding
In the songs that pull me through

[Bridge]
Maybe I was never lost
Just chased by yesterday
Every taillight in the distance
Looks like someone chose to stay
I keep rolling into darkness
Till the sky begins to pale
Finding out the forward motion
Is the place I always hailed

[Bridge 2]
Maybe home isn't a doorway
Maybe it's a steady beat
Tires humming under streetlights
Keeping time with my heartbeat
And the rearview holds the memories
But it doesn't hold my mind

[Chorus]
Home in the headlights
All I need's that yellow line
Every exit sign
Just another porch light passing by
Home in the headlights
Where the endings feel alright
Windows down
Same old song
I've been living in the drive all night

[Outro]
Home in the headlights
Home in the headlights
No perfect map, no perfect timing
Just a dash glow and a clear enough sky
If I'm moving, I'm arriving
I've been living in the drive all night
