Lyrics

[Verse 1]
You said meet me late
At the corner store
Paper cup in your hand
And your key in the door

I rolled up slow
With the windows down
Your laugh hit first
Then the whole town drowned

[Pre-Chorus]
Hold on, stay close
Don't let it fade
We got this road
And the night we made

Your voice on my skin
Like a spark in the dark
Take my hand now
Let's not fall apart

[Chorus]
After hours drive
Keep me alive
After hours drive
You know I come back
When the world goes quiet
And your name rings back
After hours drive
After hours drive

[Verse 2]
Now your jacket's on
The backseat frame
Fast food bag
And a scratched-out name

You sing that line
With the cracked-up truth
My heart kept time
When I found you

[Pre-Chorus]
Hold on, stay close
Don't let it fade
We got this road
And the night we made

Your voice on my skin
Like a spark in the dark
Take my hand now
Let's not fall apart

[Chorus]
After hours drive
Keep me alive
After hours drive
You know I come back
When the world goes quiet
And your name rings back
After hours drive
After hours drive

[Bridge]
If the dawn comes hard
We'll outrun that gray
One more mile
Then we drift away

I rise in your light
You pull me in
Say it again
And I’ll start again

[Final Chorus]
After hours drive
Keep me alive
After hours drive
You know I come back
When the world goes quiet
And your name rings back
After hours drive
After hours drive
