Cherry-Colored Freeway

歌詞

[Intro] Golden sky on the dashboard light Summer air and a heart too bright Radio glow, your hand in mine Everything feels just right tonight [Verse 1] We were chasing the evening line Where the city met the fading shine Windows down and the breeze rolled in Like a movie where the dreams begin Street signs dancing in pink and blue Every signal was leading to you In the mirror the daylight blurred But I still remember every word [Pre-Chorus] You said “Don’t let this feeling go” And the whole world moved in slow motion Under a cherry-colored glow [Chorus] On the cherry-colored freeway We were young in the fading light Hearts beating like a stereo Burning soft through the summer night Oh, take me where the skyline shimmers Where the blue turns gold and gray I still hear your voice in the rearview Calling me back to yesterday [Verse 2] Ocean flashing beside the road Neon waiting to overflow You were laughing, I turned to see The prettiest kind of memory No destination, no map, no plan Just your perfume and the hum of the van City shadows began to bloom And the stars came out too soon [Pre-Chorus] You said “This night will never end” Like we could drive beyond the morning And circle back again [Chorus] On the cherry-colored freeway We were young in the fading light Hearts beating like a stereo Burning soft through the summer night Oh, take me where the skyline shimmers Where the blue turns gold and gray I still hear your voice in the rearview Calling me back to yesterday [Bridge] Now the seasons roll like headlights Passing through my sleepless mind Every sunset paints your outline In a rose and amber line If I close my eyes, I’m there again Your silhouette, the radio rain Some nights love feels far away Some nights it’s one song away [Final Chorus] On the cherry-colored freeway We were glowing in the afterlight Dreams drifting through the speakers Everything felt so alive Oh, somewhere where the skyline shimmers That summer still remains And I keep your name like a secret Floating through the evening haze [Outro] Golden sky on the dashboard light Your goodbye still rides the night Cherry-colored memory Still driving home inside of me
