Midnight Mountain Bend

Lyrics: Midnight Mountain Bend

[Verse] We left that neon behind us, baby Now it’s mountain air on the skin Headlights carving up the darkness And I’m thinking where we’ve been Your hand on my shoulder, steady Like a promise I can hold This road keeps asking questions And my heart keeps turning gold [Pre-chorus] I don’t need a map to find you I don’t need a sign to know When the world gets cold and heavy You’re the fire in my soul [Chorus] Hold on, hold on, my baby Hold on through the climb If the night starts talking lonely Let my love keep time We ain’t done, we ain’t done, my baby Not even close, not tonight From the wide open silence To the Rocky mountain light [Verse] Truck stop preacher on the radio Said the storm will pass on through I don’t know about tomorrow But I know about you Every mile we’ve been earning Every scar we leave behind When the road turns into heaven That’s your name on my mind [Bridge] If I get scared, I won’t show it But you’ll feel it in my breath So come a little closer, darling Put your sweet hand on my chest Let the engine sing forgiveness Let the tires sing amen And when we reach that morning We’ll begin again [Chorus] Hold on, hold on, my baby Hold on through the climb If the night starts talking lonely Let my love keep time We ain’t done, we ain’t done, my baby Not even close, not tonight From the wide open silence To the Rocky mountain light [Outro] Mm-mm, hold on… Yeah, hold on…
