[Verse] Dust kicks up behind these tires, soft and slow Old blue jeans, a worn-out map, nowhere we gotta go Sunset's fading, paintin’ gold on fields we drive through I’m holdin’ on to every moment that feels like you [Pre-Chorus] Whispered words hang heavy in the air But I’m takin’ all the time we got left to spare [Chorus] So I’ll take the backroads, turn around before goodbye Find a place to hide the heartache in a sky so wide When the world says it's over, I’ll just take my time On these winding backroads, girl, I’m never sayin' goodbye [Verse] Moonlight slips between the pines, a silver thread Every curve a secret story that we’re not done with yet Your hand’s in mine, no rush, no plans to say what’s true In this little quiet haven, I just want to stay with you [Pre-Chorus] Words don’t have to fall like rain tonight I’ll keep us safe inside this gentle ride [Chorus] So I’ll take the backroads, turn around before goodbye Find a place to hide the heartache in a sky so wide When the world says it's over, I’ll just take my time On these winding backroads, girl, I’m never sayin' goodbye [Bridge] Let the night stretch out forever, stars our guide We’ll fade into the silence, with nowhere left to hide If goodbye’s what they’re wantin’, we’ll keep running slow On these roads that only lovers know [Chorus] So I’ll take the backroads, turn around before goodbye Find a place to hide the heartache in a sky so wide When the world says it's over, I’ll just take my time On these winding backroads, girl, I’m never sayin' goodbye [Outro] No, I’m never sayin' goodbye… On these backroads, girl, we’re never sayin' goodbye.
