Mmm, ooh
Clock on the dash says 9:02
Sky bleedin' red like it always do
Radio hummin' some heartbreak tune
I swear they wrote that song for you
Left your town with a half-tank dream
Still smell the smoke in my worn-out jeans
We were fire before we were free
Now I'm burnin' gas tryna find that heat
Every sign says: Slow it down
But my heart don't hear that sound
I'm racin' to you like faith to a sinner, like
A last shot before it is daylight
Thunder rollin' through the rain
Like a fool that can't quit sayin' your name
If love's a road, I'm halfway through
If there's a heaven, it looks like you
Every mile just proves it's true
I'm racin', I'm racin' to you
I'm racin', I'm racin' to you
Ah
Gas station glow in a one-horse town
Told that clerk, I ain't slowin' down
Said, Girl, you can't outrun what's gone
I said, Watch me prove you wrong
Got your letter in the glove box dust
Said you still think of us
I don't know where your heart moved to
But I'm bettin' it's close to the Moon
Every sign says, Slow it down
But my heart don't hear that sound
I'm racin' to you like faith to a sinner, like
Songbird screamin' at window light
Lightning searchin' for a tree, like
God's own hand pushin' me
If love's a road, I'm halfway through
If there's a heaven, it looks like you
Every mile just proves it's true
I'm racin', I'm racin' to you
I'm racin', I'm racin' to you
Ah
Shadow's bendin' to find its way
I've been drivin' through a fade all day
Every prayer hit the same sky blue
Every wish comes down to you
I'm racin' to you like fire to air, like
Hope to the one still there
If love's a storm, I'm the flood that grew
If the end is in sight, I'll see it through
If the road don't end, I'll start anew
'Cause home ain't home unless it's you
Yeah, every mile just proves it's true
I'm racin', I'm racin' to you
I'm racin', I'm racin' to you
Ah
