Back This Truck Up (Acoustic)
I've got a picture of you in the shotgun seat
The flicker in your eyes burns on my mind
Every day that truck fires up the regret
Of leaving you behind
No one tells you how much it's gonna hurt
When the wheels are spinning and you can't find Reverse
We were just kids but didn't know it then
And we can wonder if we'll ever run like new again
Eyes closed with a memory in tow
Makes it hard to steer
After years of grinding gears and getting stuck
Trying to back this truck up
We looked for every shooting star raining down
To tell us what we didn't know
And when they lit the road out of town
You told me I was leaving alone
But no one tells you how much it's gonna hurt
When the wheels are spinning and you can't find Reverse
We were just kids but didn't know it then
And we can wonder if we'll ever run like new again
Eyes closed with a memory in tow
Makes it hard to steer
After years of grinding gears and getting stuck
Trying to back this truck up
I'm blowing through every caution sign
And crossing every solid line
'Cause if I can somehow
Turn it around
Maybe you'd jump in one more time
Yeah we were just kids but didn't know it then
And we can wonder if we'll ever run like new again
Eyes closed with a memory in tow
Makes it hard to steer
After years of grinding gears and getting stuck
Trying to back this truck up
Trying to back this truck up
The flicker in your eyes burns on my mind
Every day that truck fires up the regret
Of leaving you behind
No one tells you how much it's gonna hurt
When the wheels are spinning and you can't find Reverse
We were just kids but didn't know it then
And we can wonder if we'll ever run like new again
Eyes closed with a memory in tow
Makes it hard to steer
After years of grinding gears and getting stuck
Trying to back this truck up
We looked for every shooting star raining down
To tell us what we didn't know
And when they lit the road out of town
You told me I was leaving alone
But no one tells you how much it's gonna hurt
When the wheels are spinning and you can't find Reverse
We were just kids but didn't know it then
And we can wonder if we'll ever run like new again
Eyes closed with a memory in tow
Makes it hard to steer
After years of grinding gears and getting stuck
Trying to back this truck up
I'm blowing through every caution sign
And crossing every solid line
'Cause if I can somehow
Turn it around
Maybe you'd jump in one more time
Yeah we were just kids but didn't know it then
And we can wonder if we'll ever run like new again
Eyes closed with a memory in tow
Makes it hard to steer
After years of grinding gears and getting stuck
Trying to back this truck up
Trying to back this truck up
