lyrics

Whistling, two hours from New Mexico
Your lips, a landing pad, oh how I love to
Touch down, four sneakers to the ground
We soak up too much of the sun

But when you laugh
You give it back

Grapefruit skin and lunar eyes
Tidal pools, long goodbyes
You and I, you and I, you and I
Open road, driving slow
What's the hurry, we're at home
You and I, you and I, you and I
Oh yeah

Lean back, let the wind whip right across your forearm
Cupped hands, a fighter jet, a bird, an old song
Swims out of the speakers, washing toe to ahead
Barefoot driving

A two palm hold
That sky blue coat

Grapefruit skin and lunar eyes
Tidal pools, long goodbyes
You and I, you and I, you and I
Open road, driving slow
What's the hurry, we're at home
You and I, you and I, you and I
Oh yeah

Grapefruit skin and lunar eyes
Tidal pools, long goodbyes
You and I, you and I, you and I
Open road, driving slow
What's the hurry, we're at home
You and I, you and I, you and I
Grapefruit skin and lunar eyes
Tidal pools, long goodbyes
You and I, you and I, you and I
Open road, driving slow
What's the hurry, we're at home
You and I, you and I, you and I
