[Verse 1]
We did it in a church parking lot
You were turning twenty-nine and I was not
The weird ways that we try to heal
With my hands on your steering wheel
We fell in love in a church parking lot
[Chorus]
I think we were just emotional and broke
And you told me to believe you, what a joke
The longer that you follow the trackstar
The more burnt that you get
'Cause he always crashes hard
You don't have to go, but you can't keep running
[Verse 2]
Your bloodline couldn't cut, it couldn't reach
But you're a hero to the company you keep
And it's just a matter of time
Before you trip up at the finish line
I'll crawl up from under your feet
With a kiss on the cheek
We can meet again next time
[Chorus]
I think we were just dumb enough to hope
You said, "I won't tell anybody if you don't"
The longer that you follow the trackstar
The more burnt that you get
'Cause he always crashes hard
You don't have to go, but you can't keep running
[Bridge]
Baby, lay your head on mine
We're losing light and time
So tell me you'll be fine
You don't have to go, but you can't keep running
You don't have to go, but you can't keep running
You don't have to go, but you can't keep running
[Chorus]
I think we were just dumb enough to hope
You said, "I won't tell anybody if you don't"
The longer that you follow the trackstar
The more burnt that you get
'Cause he always crashes hard
You don't have to go, but you can't keep running
[Post-Chorus]
Baby, lay your head on mine (You don't have to go, but you can't keep running)
(You don't have to go, but you can't keep running) We're losing light and time
The longer that you follow the trackstar
The more burnt that you get (So tell me you'll be fine)
'Cause he always crashes hard
You don't have to go, but you can't keep running
