Halfway across the country, but I feel you right here
Whispering your secrets softly into my ear
Got my hands on the wheel, but my mind is on your skin
Counting down the miles until I pull you close again
The radio is playing soft into the midnight air
I look into the empty seat and wish that you were there
I can almost feel the warmth of your fingers tracing mine
Drinking up the memory of a love as sweet as wine
The distance fades to nothing when I think about your touch
A thousand miles of empty road could never be too much
I feel the steady beating of your heart across the wire
Every single second only fuels this deep desire
I am burning down the highway, chasing after the rising sun
Knowing that your open arms are where I want to run
I can feel the fire glowing in the spaces in between
The sweetest kind of longing that my soul has ever seen
Yeah, I am burning down the highway
Chasing after the rising sun
The lonely motel signs are flashing neon in the dark
But everywhere I travel, you are a compass in my heart
I left my jacket on your chair to keep my scent around
Soon I will be pulling up and touching sacred ground
The distance fades to nothing when I think about your touch
A thousand miles of empty road could never be too much
I feel the steady beating of your heart across the wire
Every single second only fuels this deep desire
I am burning down the highway, chasing after the rising sun
Knowing that your open arms are where I want to run
I can feel the fire glowing in the spaces in between
The sweetest kind of longing that my soul has ever seen
Yeah, I am burning down the highway
Chasing after the rising sun
I am burning down the highway, chasing after the rising sun
The engine hums a melody that calls me to your door
I never knew a craving that could make me hunger more
The world is standing still outside this moving window pane
I am trading all the shadows for a love that breaks the chain
Yeah, Sayed is driving through the night to feel your breathing close
It is just the highway, bringing all my love to you
I am making every promise that we whispered fully true
I am burning down the highway, chasing after the rising sun
Knowing that your open arms are where I want to run
I am finally pulling in to where my journey meant to be
Halfway across the country, now you are right here next to me
Whispering your secrets softly into my ear
Got my hands on the wheel, but my mind is on your skin
Counting down the miles until I pull you close again
The radio is playing soft into the midnight air
I look into the empty seat and wish that you were there
I can almost feel the warmth of your fingers tracing mine
Drinking up the memory of a love as sweet as wine
The distance fades to nothing when I think about your touch
A thousand miles of empty road could never be too much
I feel the steady beating of your heart across the wire
