Track Insight / Lyrics
Thirty years behind this wheel
Know every crack in asphalt heel
Meter clicks the miles away
Another fare, another day
Red light glow on wet dashboard
Love stories in the back seat lost
Streetlight love on rain-slick glass
I've watched it come and watched it pass
Meter drops but heart don't ask
Streetlight love was built to last
Young couple kissed at Fourth and Main
Left a tip and forgot the rain
She cried soft on leather seat
He stared straight at glowing street
Red light glow on wet dashboard
Love stories in the back seat lost
Streetlight love on rain-slick glass
I've watched it come and watched it pass
Meter drops but heart don't ask
Streetlight love was built to last
Radio plays someone's tune
Static mixed with rising moon
I caught her eyes in mirror glance
One last shot at second chance
Red light glow on wet dashboard
Love stories in the back seat lost
Streetlight love on rain-slick glass
I've watched it come and watched it pass
Meter drops but heart don't ask
Streetlight love was built to last
Keys turn off, the night goes quiet
My own reflection starts a riot
Empty cab and empty street
Love's the only fare I meet
Morning breaks on dashboard cracks
No more fares, no turning back
But streetlights bleed through dirty glass
Every ride was love, first class
Streetlight love on rain-slick glass
I've watched it come and watched it pass
Meter drops but heart don't ask
Streetlight love was built to last
Streetlight love was built to last
Engine dies, the meter sleeps
Love's the only fare I keep
