We Were Us

Rearview crosses, railroad ties

Oh, Hail Mary's, Friday nights

Heartbeat, baby, low-beam lights

God, I miss when you were mine

Back when that song was a song I could sing along

Without thinkin' 'bout you every time it came on

Every beat, every line, every word, every time

When a road was a road I could roll on through

Without wishin' that empty seat was you

Money was gas, dreams were dust

Love was fast and we were us

Shotgun sunset, a cool mint kiss

Backseat promise, breakin' it

Floorboard feelin', county lines

God, I miss when you were mine

Back when that song was a song I could sing along

Without thinkin' 'bout you every time it came on

Every beat, every line, every word, every time

When a road was a road I could roll on through

Without wishin' that empty seat was you

Money was gas, dreams were dust

Love was fast and we were us

In a sleepy town, just jumpin' in

Far too young to know that summers end

We were us, we can't go back

It's what it is, but God, I miss

Back when that song was a song I could sing along

Without thinkin' 'bout you every time it came on

Every beat, every line, every word, every time

When a road was a road I could roll on through

Without wishin' that empty seat was you

Money was gas, dreams were dust

Love was fast and we were us

Every beat, every line, every word, every single time

I miss you, baby

I just close my eyes and you're ridin' shotgun

You and me, baby, on the run

I miss you, baby, I miss you, baby

Still with you, baby

I can feel your heartbeat, baby
