I pop the top and the engine dies
I see the fire in your hazel eyes
A tailgate bed and a starry sky
My beer can hallelujah, you and I
The dust is settling on this county road
We've got nowhere to be, no heavy load
Your hand is tracing circles on my knee
There's nowhere else on earth I'd rather be
The crickets are playing our favorite tune
I'm pulling you closer beneath the moon
Your eyes are catching the dashboard light
We're crossing the line in the dark tonight
Oh, you're my beer can hallelujah, sweet and slow
The kind of salvation that I want to know
Let the engine cool and the fire burn
With every single touch, there's a lesson to learn
Amen to the way that you're leaning in
Let the late-night country soul begin
A drop of cold honey, a taste of your lips
My hands are finding the curve of your hips
The breeze is a whisper blowing through your hair
We've got nothing but midnight and time to spare
The radio's playing our favorite tune
I'm pulling you closer beneath the moon
Your breath is warm against my skin
I'm ready to lose, I'm ready to win
Oh, you're my beer can hallelujah, sweet and slow
The kind of salvation that I want to know
Let the engine cool and the fire burn
With every single touch, there's a lesson to learn
Amen to the way that you're leaning in
Let the late-night country soul begin
Oh, you're my beer can hallelujah, sweet and slow
Through shadows and fire, the silence is near
Every beat of my heart is an echo you hear
Our destiny waits in the fading light
Say my name softly, Sayed tonight
I'm holding you close 'til the morning is bright
Sayed… Sayed…
Sayed… Sayed…
I never thought a quiet night could feel so loud
But when I look at you, there's no one else in the crowd
Oh, you're my beer can hallelujah, sweet and slow
The kind of salvation that I want to know
Let the engine cool and the fire burn
With every single touch, there's a lesson to learn
I see the fire in your hazel eyes
A tailgate bed and a starry sky
My beer can hallelujah, you and I
The dust is settling on this county road
We've got nowhere to be, no heavy load
Your hand is tracing circles on my knee
There's nowhere else on earth I'd rather be
