We were driving through a lightning storm
When I was struck by the idea that I could end up like this

Like insomnia on winding highways
And background music

With you falling asleep to the soundtrack of our
Battering mutual affection

And nothing should be beautiful about a body that’s just at rest

But I steal glances of you sleeping
Like they’re hits

And my god, it just might **** me
Because how breathtaking you are
Injects itself into my veins
And my lungs give in

There was frost on the windows
And droplets of how perfect you are to me collecting on my mind

Recently you’ve been always on my mind
And under my skin
On the highway out in front of me

Just flashes of brown eyes
And kindness blanketed over me
When my own heart has been making me cold

There were signs that said we’re 1000 miles from anywhere
But I’m happy being nowhere with you
Or wherever it is we are

It was 4am
And my heart was thundering
While you slept at my side

Just barely out of reach
