Streetlights

[V1]
We were eighteen
I would sneak out
You’d tell your dad you were staying at a friend’s house
My ripped jeans
Your button-down
Tangled up, we were young, trying to figure it out
[PRE]
Hands touch, lips brush
Heart beat, head rush
They can’t know that we’re more than friends
But I know just as soon as the sun sets
[CH]
There you are, under the streetlights
I can’t believe the way you shine
Take my hand, open up my eyes
Bring me to life for the first time
Staring up at stars, staying up all night
You’re the love I thought I’d never find
I could spend my whole life
With you under the streetlights
[V2]
But then you let go
Said it was too real
Got sick of hiding from your dad cause he can’t deal
You found a new crowd
But kept your lips sealed
Can’t pretend we were friends, can’t forget how it feels
[PRE]
Hands touch, lips brush
Heart beat, head rush
Now you've been gone, such a long, long time
But somehow in the back of my mind
[CH]
There you are, under the streetlights
I still see the way you shine
Took my hand, opened up my eyes
We felt alive for the first time
Staring up at stars, staying up all night
You’re the love I thought I’d never find
I could have spent my whole life
With you under the streetlights
[BR]
Sometimes when it’s late
I just can’t fall asleep
I’ll drive by our spot
At the end of your street
Where the pavement is worn
I can still feel the heat
Of you pulling me close
Of your breath on my cheek
But now the night is so cold
Without your arms around me
I don’t know where you are
But this is where you should be
I wish that sun never rose
I play those nights on repeat
Every time my eyes close
You’re waiting for me
[CH]
There you are, under the streetlights
I still see the way you shine
Took my hand, opened up my eyes
We felt alive for the first time
Staring up at stars, staying up all night
You’re the love I thought I’d never find
I could have spent my whole life
With you under the streetlights
There you are, under the streetlights
I still see the way you shine
Took my hand, opened up my eyes
We felt alive for the first time
Staring up at stars, staying up all night
You’re the love I thought I’d never find
I could have spent my whole life
With you under the streetlights
