歌词
[Intro] [Verse] Shift’s done, sun’s sinking low Gravel crunching where the pine trees grow Pulled a glove from my heavy hand Found a ghost from a different land Scrap of paper, wrinkled and thin Where the hell has it even been? [Verse] Pine needles dried upon the dash Counting miles by a lightning flash Blue ink bleeding on a diner tab Something sharp like a sudden stab July heat in a greasy booth Searching for a hidden truth [Chorus] Two coffees and a slice of pie Underneath a heavy Kansas sky We said everything but “stay” Now you’re a thousand miles away Just static on the AM dial Across a long and lonely mile [Post-Chorus] Ink is fading Heart is waiting Road is winding Dust is blinding [Verse] Radio crackles through the dark Looking for a dying spark She had a laugh like a fiddle string The kind of song I used to sing No suitcase packed, no big parade Just a shadow in the evening shade [Bridge] No slamming doors, no loud goodbye Just a tail light in the eye I keep the scrap to feel the weight Of a love that showed up late Upright bass hums in my chest Putting all these ghosts to rest [Verse] Climbed the poles all damn day Wiring up the empty bay Keeping lights on for the town While my own world’s slowing down Thumb the paper, read the date Guess some things are left to fate [Chorus] Two coffees and a slice of pie Underneath a heavy Kansas sky We said everything but “stay” Now you’re a thousand miles away Just static on the AM dial Across a long and lonely mile [Hook] It’s a quiet road It’s a heavy load It’s the way it goes God only knows [Outro]
