MUSIC FOR SALE

Windows down on that old F-150, gravel crunching under the tires
August air thick with honeysuckle, fireflies dancing like tiny stars on fire
You slid over on the bench seat, bare feet up on the dash
Radio playing low some old song we both knew from the past
[Pre-Chorus]
We didn’t need a destination, just a backroad and some time
The world could wait till morning, tonight the truck was yours and mine
[Chorus]
August moon in the truck bed, blanket spread out on the steel
Your head on my shoulder, the quiet way you make me feel
Stars spilling over Indiana fields, crickets singing harmony
Nothing in this world ever felt as right as you next to me
Under that August moon… in the truck bed
[Verse 2]
Sweat on the cold beer cans between us, condensation dripping slow
We laughed about the little things — your burnt toast and my stubborn soul
Thunder rumbled far off distant, but the rain held off for us
Just the warmth of your hand in mine, and the night wrapping us up
[Pre-Chorus]
No rush, no pressure, just the simple truth we’d found
Two hearts beating steady while the summer spun around
[Chorus]
August moon in the truck bed, blanket spread out on the steel
Your head on my shoulder, the quiet way you make me feel
Stars spilling over Indiana fields, crickets singing harmony
Nothing in this world ever felt as right as you next to me
Under that August moon… in the truck bed
[Bridge]
We didn’t solve the worries waiting back in town
Just let the summer hold us till the morning light came down
A blanket, the open sky above, and the peace we’d been chasing
Two people finding home in the moments worth saving
[Final Chorus (softer, building gently)]
August moon in the truck bed… fading slow into the dawn
Your quiet breathing next to me, the best thing I’ve ever known
One more kiss before we head back down that dusty road
Under that August moon… in the truck bed
[Outro]
Yeah, that old truck knows our secrets…
August moon… you and me…
