(Verse 1)
Had nowhere to go, so we’d just drive,
Burning gas on a Friday night.
Windows down, speakers way too loud,
Singing every word, even if we got ’em wrong.
Didn’t matter where we ended up,
Parking lots or middle of nowhere.
Funny how the best nights of your life
Usually happen when you ain’t going anywhere.
(Pre-Chorus)
We were just killing time,
Never knew it’d fly by.
(Chorus)
I’d give anything for one more drive,
One more night with the music high.
Singing songs at the top of our lungs,
Thinking we’d always be this young.
Backroads and bad songs,
Those nights felt like forever.
Funny how forever
Never lasts the way you think.
(Verse 2)
Now everybody’s got their own lives,
Different roads, different towns.
Still hear certain songs come on,
And it takes me right back somehow.
Crazy how a melody can bring back
People, places, memories.
Guess some things never really leave,
They just hide in old playlists.
(Bridge)
We thought we had all the time in the world,
Guess we didn’t know any better.
But for those few hours every night…
Life couldn’t touch us.
(Final Chorus)
I’d give anything for one more drive,
One more night with the music high.
Singing songs at the top of our lungs,
Thinking we’d always be this young.
Backroads and bad songs,
Those nights felt like forever.
Funny how forever
Never lasts the way you think.
