Lyrics

Sunken highway, the rain fell in sheets
You slept, clouding up
The window pressed to your cheek
Running backward, from where you split in two
One part safe and warm
That weighed on the rest of you
I followed every soul out on the road
Like blood along a vein
But tracing all these familiar things
Just doesn’t feel the same
Do you want to start again
Without the rust in our machine
Do you want to start again
With both our hands around the key
And your eyes on me
Sun in a grey sky, like a glowing bruise
We were counting up our injured pieces in two’s
Running backward, pulled inside your dream
I hoped the winter sun could fold us
Into her heat
One thin ribbon to hold along the road
Tied when we began
Driving away, I was afraid
It would slip right through my hands
Do you want to start again
Without the rust in our machine
Do you want to start again
With both our hands around the key
And your eyes on me
Sharp, early dawn came crashing down
Through the windshield, we could
Carve our names in the light
Little wishes to hold inside
Do you want to start again
Without the rust in our machine
Do you want to start again
Without the rust in our machine
When our garden was ours to grow
When our motors were beautiful
Do you want to start again
With both our hands around the key
And your eyes on me
