Midnight Thunder
**Midnight Thunder** is a driving blues-rock song about trying to outrun heartbreak beneath the glow of headlights and moonlight. A restless man takes to the open road at night, surrounded by chrome, engine noise and endless asphalt, hoping that somewhere beyond the next bend he might finally find the freedom he has been searching for.
But the road carries memories with it.
What was once a ride shared by two has become a solitary journey. The passenger seat is empty, and memories of wind, laughter and better days keep breaking through the rumble of the engine. The machine beneath him can carry him for miles, but it cannot quite carry him beyond the person he has lost.
The big, singable chorus turns the road itself into a plea for release. **Midnight Thunder** isn't simply about escaping a lost love — it's about continuing to move until the memories finally loosen their grip and the open road can become freedom again.

Lyrics
Chrome gleam in the moonlight
Engine hum a low growl
Midnight oil burning bright
My restless soul on the prowl
Oh midnight thunder
Hear my desperate plea
This open road wonder
Gonna set my spirit free
Fenders skirtin' the asphalt
Low and slow a sweet ride
Memories crash a sudden halt
Where did our love hide
Oh midnight thunder
Hear my desperate plea
This open road wonder
Gonna set my spirit free
Used to ride two up with you
Wind in your hair laughin' free
Now just the ghost of me and you
Haunts this empty passenger seat
Oh midnight thunder
Hear my desperate plea
This open road wonder
Gonna set my spirit free
