Lyrics
[Verse 1] Headlights on the wet road Your name on my tongue I pass that old diner Where we used to run The seat next to me is empty But it still feels full Of your jacket in July And the things I never pulled [Pre-Chorus] I keep circling back To the words you said “Don’t make this harder” Still live in my head And I swear I’m fine Then your song comes on Now I’m lost in a mile That goes on and on [Chorus] I want you Can’t have you I want you Can’t have you I keep driving by That same old moon I want you Can’t have you (too close, too far) (too close, too far) [Verse 2] Red brake lights fading Like a promise gone thin I see your porch glow Then I never pull in My hands stay steady But my heart won’t stay Every turn I take Leads me back to that day You were almost mine That’s the cruelest part Now the freeway keeps What you left in my heart [Pre-Chorus] I keep circling back To the words you said “Don’t make this harder” Still live in my head And I swear I’m fine Then your song comes on Now I’m lost in a mile That goes on and on [Chorus] I want you Can’t have you I want you Can’t have you I keep driving by That same old moon I want you Can’t have you (too close, too far) (too close, too far) [Bridge] If I stop, I know I’ll call your name And the whole night air Will say it back the same So I let the road Take the ache I hide With your ghost in the glass And the dark outside [Final Chorus] I want you Can’t have you I want you Can’t have you I keep driving by That same old moon I want you Can’t have you I want you Can’t have you I want you Can’t have you (too close, too far) (too close, too far)
