[Verse 1] Cold wind on chrome Your jacket on my knees Late night in that parking lot You swore you'd wait for me Ashtray halo in your hands Keys shaking on that ring You said "This town will eat us alive" I laughed like I believed
[Pre-Chorus] Every scar Still spells your name In the dark I taste that rain
[Chorus] Echoes in the parking lot I still hear you calling Every word you ever dropped Feels like metal falling Heartbreak in a leather knot Tied around my chest Echoes in the parking lot Where I loved you Best
[Verse 2] Headlights cut through memory Like a solo in my veins Old song on the dashboard glow I pull over in the same place Your lipstick ghost on my cup Your boots on my backseat I talk to the empty air Like you're still there with me
[Pre-Chorus] Every scar Still spells your name I press the gas But stay the same
[Chorus]
[guitar solo]
[Bridge] [low vocal register] I still wait by the yellow line [voice rising] Arms out wide to a closing sky If you came back If you came tonight I'd burn this whole town just to feel alive [crescendo]
[Chorus]
[Chorus]
