[Verse 1]
Quarter tank
County line
Summer jobs and borrowed time
Dashboard rattles
Peel-off tags
Half-warm coffee in paper bags
You read fortunes off receipts
Say we're ghosts in leather seats
Laughing hard at exit signs
Like they're omens
Like they're mine
[Chorus]
Put this lakehouse on autopilot
Let the screen door slam
Let the neighbors mind it
If the world goes loud
We don't have to fight it
We can stay right here
Stay right here in the quiet
(Lakehouse autopilot)
[Verse 2]
Wet shoes on the wooden floor
Cheap wine by the sliding door
You redraw our whole hometown
On a napkin
Upside down
You say
"One day we'll be brave
Quit the script
Just misbehave"
I just trace your coffee ring
Like it's certain
Like a ring
[Chorus]
Put this lakehouse on autopilot
Let the screen door slam
Let the neighbors mind it
If the world goes loud
We don't have to fight it
We can stay right here
Stay right here in the quiet
(Lakehouse autopilot, oh-oh)
[Bridge]
What if we never turn the porch light off?
What if we never get found out?
If the tide keeps stealing all our plans away
Let it drag them down
Drag them down
[Chorus]
Put this lakehouse on autopilot
Let the screen door slam
Let the neighbors mind it
If the world goes loud
We don't have to fight it
We can stay right here
Stay right here in the quiet
(Lakehouse autopilot, autopilot)
