Moonlight and Motor Oil is a portrait of a man left behind in love, in time, in the back of a garage filled with echoes and empty spaces. For every heart that keeps turning wrenches hoping something might still spark.

Lyrics
Wrench in my hand, grease on my jeans
You in my mind like recurring dreams
Old truck runs but my heart wont start
Your leaving broke more than just parts
Cigarette glow in the rearview glass
You said goodbye like it was built to last
Moonlight and motor oil
Your memory in every coil
I crank the engine, hear you in the sound
Of gears that grind where love broke down
This garage holds more than steel and soil
Its full of moonlight and motor oil
Your lipstick mark on the dashboard fan
Still there like a ghost with a master plan
You hated the fumes but loved my smile
And Ive been broken down for miles
You left your jacket on the radio dial
Now I play your song and cry awhile
I fix what I can, but some things stay bent
You cant wrench love back once its spent
Moonlight and motor oil
Im stuck in time, caught in the toil
If healings out there, I aint found the road
Just tools and tears in overload
Love dont burn clean, it leaves a spoil
Like moonlight and motor oil
