I count the hours in the dashboard light

Every streetlight knows your name by night

I write you down on every empty page

But the silence eats the words I try to save

And I'm just a boy with a broken radio

Singing songs you'll never know

But if I could make you stay

If I could find the way

To tell you what I never said

I'd shout it from the rooftop instead

But my voice breaks, it always does

I'm trying to be louder than words

You sit so close, but you feel so far

Like chasing comets in the dark

I laugh too loud when you're around

Just to hide the only true sound
