Song Title:- Short Nights, Long Days Genre:- country (modern country, heartland) Tempo:- 92–100 BPM Lyrics:- [Verse] Alarm at four again Boots on, hair pulled back Coffee burns my tongue Moon still on the black Radio gives the call I grab my worn-out bag Another highway prayer In a flashing dash [Pre-Chorus] I hear those rotors talk Like thunder in the pines I breathe and check my hands I count the seconds down [Chorus] Short nights, long days I live in the siren’s haze Hands steady, heart brave I do it for the ones who wait Somewhere a mama prays I send back grace and praise Short nights, long days Till the sun breaks [Verse] Cold steel, cabin light Headset, heavy hum Skin pale, eyes wide We fight for one more run I watch the river shine Under a neon cross I hold the line for hope No matter what it costs [Pre-Chorus] I feel that stretcher shake I hear the medic’s breath I whisper keep on staying We ain’t done yet [Chorus] Short nights, long days I live in the siren’s haze Hands steady, heart brave I do it for the ones who wait Somewhere a mama prays I send back grace and praise Short nights, long days Till the sun breaks [Bridge] I got a picture on my dash Little smiles in a frame They think I work a job They don’t know all the names If I don’t make it home I hope they understand Love’s a risky road But I’d drive it again [Final Chorus] Short nights, long days I live in the siren’s haze Hands steady, heart brave I do it for the ones who wait Somewhere a mama prays I send back grace and praise Short nights, long days Yeah, short nights, long days Till the sun breaks [Outro] Rotor wash fades away Dawn warms up my face I hang my wings on grace Short nights, long days Style:- Modern country midtempo; female lead; acoustic gtr+banjo bed, airy pads, tight drums, warm bass; big hook, stacked harmonies, wide choruses, punchy clean mix
