Track Insight / Lyrics

Rain hits the window of the all-night grill Letter soaked through in her calloused hand Footsteps count past the glowing shell sign Trucker tips his hat and asks for seconds Crossroads rain letter holds his goodbye Neon buzz hums through the wet night air She counts each step that fades toward morning Coffee stays warm while the paper dries Grease stains the counter where he used to sit Ordered black coffee extra sugar packets Told her he'd write when the rig hit Denver Now ink runs pink on the cheap diner napkin Crossroads rain letter holds his goodbye Neon buzz hums through the wet night air She counts each step that fades toward morning Coffee stays warm while the paper dries Regulars pretend they don't see her shaking Old man in booth three asks for refill Jokes about weather and diesel prices Anything but the letter in her fingers Crossroads rain letter holds his goodbye Neon buzz hums through the wet night air She counts each step that fades toward morning Coffee stays warm while the paper dries Gas pump clicks off at the crossroads station Headlights sweep past the condensation She folds the note tucked in her apron pocket Shift ends when the sun hits the chrome Tom rolls build like thunder in the distance Bass walks up the scale to resolution Harmonies bloom bright as station sunrise Tension breaks and the night exhales slow Morning crew arrives with fresh pot brewing She reads the last line one more time smiling Save me a seat at the counter darling Footsteps stop right at the screen door Crossroads rain letter holds his goodbye Neon buzz hums through the wet night air She counts each step that fades toward morning Coffee stays warm while the paper dries Crossroads rain letter brought him back home Neon buzz hums through the wet night air She counts each step that fades toward morning Coffee stays warm while the paper dries Bass line fades slow like morning coffee Footsteps stop right at the screen door
