[Verse 1]
You came in fast on a borrowed night
With the dust still hanging off your ride
Seven red taillights on the county road
And your name hit hard when the screen lit up
You said, meet me where the gravel turns
Past the feed store and the burned-out barn
I kept one shoe on at the porch light
Trying not to smile too wide
[Pre-Chorus]
And my hands shook
When you pulled up close
A little wild
A little out of control
[Chorus]
Takata, Takata
You make me lose my mind
Takata, Takata
You hit me every time
I hear that name
And I’m gone again
Takata, Takata
Come back and do it again
[Verse 2]
You got a cracked phone and a racing grin
A lucky coin in your palm again
You said you’d stay till the morning came
But morning never kept you tame
I found your cap by the fence post gate
Your jacket smell on the truck seat late
Now every backroad, every stop sign
Feels like your shadow walks with mine
[Pre-Chorus]
And my heart kicks
When the engine growls
You’re here, then gone
But I want you now
[Chorus]
Takata, Takata
You make me lose my mind
Takata, Takata
You hit me every time
I hear that name
And I’m gone again
Takata, Takata
Come back and do it again
[Bridge]
Maybe you’re a storm
Maybe I’m the road
Maybe I keep chasing
What I can’t hold
But if you call once
I’ll be at the gate
One foot on the porch
And one in fate
[Chorus]
Takata, Takata
You make me lose my mind
Takata, Takata
You hit me every time
I hear that name
And I’m gone again
Takata, Takata
Come back and do it again
