Backseat Prayers

[Verse 1]

You said, "I'll drive"

But you tossed me the keys

Windows down

Heart up to my teeth

You laughed, said

Cuts a little deep

[Pre-Chorus]

Your jacket’s in the backseat

Still smells like your perfume

I’m talkin’ to a ghost

Like you’re in this room

[Chorus]

I’m still sayin’ backseat prayers

Talkin’ to the air like you’re still there

Chasin’ your name in the broken glare

Of every midnight mirror

If letting go means letting you fade

I’ll keep drivin’ into yesterday

Hands at ten and two, but I still swear

I’m holdin’ you

In these backseat prayers

[Verse 2]

I pass that church

Where you sang out of key (yeah)

We missed the words

But we found harmony

Now the choir doors

Are just memories

Singin’ every line

You took from me

[Chorus]

I’m still sayin’ backseat prayers

Talkin’ to the air like you’re still there

Chasin’ your name in the broken glare

Of every midnight mirror

If letting go means letting you fade

I’ll keep drivin’ into yesterday

Hands at ten and two, but I still swear

I’m holdin’ you

In these backseat prayers

[Bridge]

Maybe one more mile

Maybe one more song (one more song)

If I keep this car in motion

Of every midnight mirror

If letting go means letting you fade

I’ll keep drivin’ into yesterday

Hands at ten and two, but I still swear

I’m holdin’ you

In these backseat prayers
