Endless, Towards Forever

There are towns built in the shadow of the mountains
And mountains in the shadow of the sky
There's a rainstorm reaching down from the horizon
Its fingers brush the windshield as we drive

The perfect rows of empty trees surround us
Stretching endless, towards forever on all sides
Their arms holding on tight against the winter
Like skeletons with silent, ancient eyes

And I think that if this drive
Lasted forever, I would not mind
To hold your hand, lean against the window
And let the world just pass us by
To finally start to believe we'll be all right

There's a broken tree on the side of the highway
Like a dead man standing sadly by the road
There are coffee stains and words scrawled in the margins
And the corners of the map we brought from home

And I think that if this drive
Lasted forever, I would not mind
To hold your hand, lean against the window
And let the world just pass us by
To finally start to believe we'll be all right

And I think that if this drive
Lasted forever, I would not mind
To hold your hand, lean against the window
And let the world just pass us by
To finally start to believe
That there is sunrise on the other side of night
That we are stronger than the things that try to break us
It's just you and I, the world can stay outside
