Found my old CD album from 2004 and they were in there. I am now listening to them nonstop. Forgot about them and how good they were. I am 31 right now. This song is my favorite.
We drive tonight, And you are by my side. We're talking about our lives, Like we've known each other forever. The time flies by, With the sound of your voice. Its close to paradise, With the end surely near. And if i could only stop the car And hold onto you, And never let go (and never let go) I'll never let go (i'll never let go) As we round the corner To your house You turned to me and said, "I'll be going through withdrawal of you For this one night we have spent." And, i want to speak these words But i guess i'll just bite my tongue, And accept "someday, somehow" As the words that we'll hang from. And i (i.), i don't want to speak these words. 'Cause i ('cause i.), i don't want to make things any worse. And i (i.), i don't want to speak these words. 'Cause i, i don't want to make things any worse. Why does tonight, have to end? Why don't we hit restart, And pause it at our favorite parts. We'll skip the goodbyes. If i had it my way, I'd turn the car around and runaway, Just you and i. And i (i.), i don't want to speak these words. 'Cause i ('cause i.), i don't want to make things any worse. (any worse) And i (i.), i don't want to speak these words 'Cause i, i don't want to make things And i, i don't want to make things any worse
Damn, high school Loves mom was out of town for a business trip. I stayed at her house all weekend. She showed me where her mom left her car keys. An me, loving and knowing how to drive. Oh yea, we took that green Honda Accord around town. Playing this song was soooo fucking perfect for that one night. Geez. Some songs really stick with you some kinda way. A lil twist about the car, weeks later mom took another trip. My friend hung out at the house. We took the car an drove around a bit while the girls stayed at the house. My homie crashed it. 😱 🤦🏻♂️
