[Verse 1]
Chemtrails bisect a golden hour sky
On a westbound beach town golden state highway drive
You’ve got one hand out the window and the other in mine
I could live right here in this moment for the rest of my life
[Pre-Chorus]
‘Cause time won’t slow down
So it’s time we go now
[Chorus]
Let’s chase horizons off the Catalina coastline
Jeep ride all the way to Santa Fe
Sip a coffee to a Montana sunrise
Say goodnight to the Colorado rain
Sky’s the limit baby
Wheels up
Need a hundred lifetimes kind of love
I could say forever but forever ain’t long enough
[Verse 2] Long enough to write all the songs I want to write about you
Say all that we want to say and do all we want to do
[Pre-Chorus]
‘Cause time won’t slow down
So it’s time we go now
[Chorus]
Let’s chase horizons off the Catalina coastline
Jeep ride all the way to Santa Fe
Sip a coffee to a Montana sunrise
Say goodnight to the Colorado rain
Sky’s the limit baby
Wheels up
Need a hundred lifetimes kind of love
I could say forever but forever ain’t long enough
Ooh
[Chorus]
I’d chase horizons off the Catalina coastline
Jeep ride all the way to Santa Fe
Sip a coffee to a Montana sunrise
Say goodnight to the Colorado rain
Backpack up to a peak in Patagonia
Hot-tubbing under northern lights
Take a knee watch a tear hit the floorboard
Buy some land, raise some kids, raise
‘em right Sky’s the limit baby
Wheels up
Need a hundred lifetimes kind of love
I could say forever but forever ain’t long enough
I could say forever but forever ain’t long enough
