[Verse] City lights blur, spillin’ rain on my window Backseat confessions, midnight tales you won’t know Feet tap the pedal, heartbeat in the street Every corner’s got a story where strangers meet [Pre-Chorus] Whispers and shadows, neon confide Hold on tight, honey, it’s a bitter ride [Chorus] Ride with me through the smoke and the sighs Downtown’s a whisper beneath the night sky Every mile’s a poem, every stop’s a plea In this taxi, baby, you’re ridin’ with me [Verse] Smoke curls from a cigarette behind the faded seats Old loves and lost dreams in the hum of the heat Dashboard lights flicker like a pulse in the dark Every fare’s a memory, every eye leaves a mark [Pre-Chorus] Whispers and shadows, neon confide Hold on tight, honey, it’s a bitter ride [Chorus] Ride with me through the smoke and the sighs Downtown’s a whisper beneath the night sky Every mile’s a poem, every stop’s a plea In this taxi, baby, you’re ridin’ with me [Bridge] Gasoline breath, the city speaks low Secrets unravel where the sidewalk won’t go If you listen close, you can hear the truth In the rhythm of tires and the night’s youth [Chorus] Ride with me through the smoke and the sighs Downtown’s a whisper beneath the night sky Every mile’s a poem, every stop’s a plea In this taxi, baby, you’re ridin’ with me [Outro] So hold on, darling, through the dusk and the dawn In this cab, you’re never alone for long
