Lyrics
Engine off, the city hums
Just the radio and the two of us
We pulled over where the lights go dim
Your head against the window, soft and slim
Quiet enough to hear the rain
Neither of us wants to say a name
Your hand's an inch away from mine
And I count that space a hundred times
And it's closer than this, oh
Closer than I should go
One breath away, but you don't know
Closer than this we'll never get
Midnight holding what we won't admit
I could turn and cross that quiet line
But I keep it to myself, keep it to myself
Some kind of love we never named in time
And I keep it to myself, keep it to myself
You talk about the place you're moving to
Like it's nothing, like I'd want you to
I nod along and watch the glass fog up
Wishing midnight never had to stop
The dashboard glow is all the light we need
And everything I want is right here next to me
And it's closer than this, oh
Closer than I should go
One breath away, but you don't know
Closer than this we'll never get
Midnight holding what we won't admit
I could turn and cross that quiet line
But I keep it to myself, keep it to myself
Some kind of love we never named in time
And I keep it to myself, keep it to myself
If I leaned in now would it break
Everything we didn't make
I'd rather hold this quiet line
Than lose you to one honest line
So close, so close, so close
Engine off, the city hums
Just the radio and the two of us
