In the backseat I don't wanna talk, I'm fine
In a way I don't wanna be here, I just wanna ride
And my two friends are laughing about the people that we know
In the backseat my head is heavy out the window

And they say get on with it and list all the things I know
But I don't wanna miss the lights and the radio

Yeah, the lights
I'm young and I'm falling in love with the night
I'm not tired, let's just drive
And I look nice
When I'm free and lonely in the backseat

At the party the song takes me back
To last December or something like that
And I remember how we felt so old
We fell in love and no one had to know

And they say get on with it and list off what I can do
But I don't wanna miss the lights and you

Yeah, the lights
I'm young and I'm falling in love with the night
I'm not tired, let's just drive
And I look nice
When I'm free and lonely in the backseat

(In the backseat)
(I don't wanna miss the lights and you)

Yeah, the lights
I'm young and falling in love with the night
I'm not tired, let's just drive
And I look nice
When I'm free and lonely in the backseat
