A Little Lost, Still Moving

Lyrics

[Verse 1] Wendi keeps a paper map Folded in her jacket seam Circles every little town Where the river cuts the green She says the road knows when to turn If you stop and let it breathe I watch her thumb trace county lines Like a promise underneath [Pre-Chorus] She laughs and says, “Don’t make it heavy” Then she takes my hand already [Chorus] Wendi, take me where the fields go silver Where the old train leans beside the river If we lose the road, we’ll call it lucky You and me, a little lost, still moving Wendi, keep that window open wider Let the morning pull us both beside her Every mile turns ordinary into something You and me, a little lost, still moving [Verse 2] At a diner past the county line She orders coffee, black and sweet Leaves a coin beside the sugar jar And a sketch beneath the receipt The waitress asks us where we’re bound Wendi points beyond the glass Says, “Somewhere we can hear ourselves Before the summer passes fast” [Pre-Chorus] She laughs and says, “Don’t make it heavy” Then she takes my hand already [Chorus] Wendi, take me where the fields go silver Where the old train leans beside the river If we lose the road, we’ll call it lucky You and me, a little lost, still moving Wendi, keep that window open wider Let the morning pull us both beside her Every mile turns ordinary into something You and me, a little lost, still moving [Bridge] One day these tires will cool down One day we’ll know the names of every town But tonight your map is on my knee And every blank space looks like we’re free [Final Chorus] Wendi, take me where the fields go silver Where the old train leans beside the river If we lose the road, we’ll call it lucky You and me, a little lost, still moving Wendi, keep that window open wider Let the morning pull us both beside her Every mile turns ordinary into something You and me, a little lost, still moving [Outro] A little lost, still moving Wendi, keep the window open
