Verse 1 — Male

I found your picture in a Bible by the bed
Between the verses and the words we never said
Whiskey on the counter, thunder in the sky
Your ghost still burns like bourbon in my blood tonight

That old screen door still rattles in the wind
Like every lie we swore we’d never live again
I drove by your mama’s house at half past two
Saw a shadow in the kitchen… prayed it wasn’t you

⸻

Verse 2 — Female

I heard you’re back in town and raising hell again
Same black Silverado, same smoke and sin
Somebody said they saw you at the county line
With a brunette on your arm pretending she was mine

I should hate your name for what you put me through
But lonely makes a fool do what fools always do
So I pour another drink and kill the lights
And let your memory crawl back in tonight

⸻

Chorus — Both

I keep your picture folded in this broken heart of mine
Like a loaded .45 I can’t leave behind
Every kiss still tastes like cigarettes and rain
Every goodbye carved deeper in my veins

And I swear I moved on… Lord knows I tried
But your shadow still sleeps on my side
Yeah we burned like wildfire through these midnight blues
Now all I got’s your picture… and the truth

⸻

Verse 3 — Male

There’s mud on these boots from roads we used to ride
Back when your hand fit perfectly in mine
Now the jukebox plays our song down at the bar
And every neon light feels like another scar

I still hear you laughing through the static rain
Like heaven and the devil both called your name
And somewhere in this southern storm tonight
You’re missing me the way I miss your eyes

⸻

Bridge — Female & Male

Female:
Maybe love ain’t meant to last forever

Male:
Maybe broken hearts just break together

Female:
You were fire in the dark when I was numb

Male:
You were the only place I ever ran from

Both:
Now the night keeps dragging us back through the flames
Two lost souls wearing each other’s chains

⸻

Final Chorus — Both

I keep your picture hidden from the morning light
Cause daylight makes the truth too hard to fight
Every memory still cuts me like a knife
Like loving you was both my curse and my life

And I swear I moved on… Lord knows I lied
Cause I still feel your hands every night
Yeah we burned like sinners under blood-red moons
Now all I got’s your picture…
And all you got’s me too

⸻

Outro — Male (low, gravelly)

That picture’s fading now…
But not you…
Never you…
