Backseat Daydream

[Verse 1]
You pull up
Half a tank
But we still go
Dashboard dust
Old receipt
Crumpled in your coat
You say
“Get in”
Like it’s some big movie scene
But it’s just us
And the traffic
And the in-between

[Pre-Chorus]
Windows down
Hair in a mess
You say you’re lost
I say "say less"
Street signs blur
But it feels alright
Like we borrowed the night

[Chorus]
Backseat daydream
Leaning on your shoulder
Laughing ‘bout nothing
Watching the sky get colder
We got time to waste
Hearts to break
Spelling our names on the glass we shake
Backseat daydream
Holding on to maybe
You’re not mine yet
But the way you look at me
Feels like someday
Someday
Might start here

[Verse 2]
Red light
You tap beats on the steering wheel
Wrong turn
You pretend that it’s part of the deal
You say
“Stay late”
Like it’s casual
Like it’s fine
But you pause twice
On the word
Like you’re crossing a line

[Pre-Chorus]
Empty road
Still we stay slow
Parking lot stars in a faded glow
You say my name
I forget my script
Whole world in that slip

[Chorus]

[Bridge]
Seatbelt hanging loose
My guard does too
You’re singing off key
I still fall for you
If this is nothing
Why’s it feel this strong?
If this is nothing
Why do I want it so long?

[Chorus]
