Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Sittin' in the back of a car
Music so loud, can't tell a thing
Thinkin' 'bout what to say
I can't find the lines
[Verse 2]
You know I love you alot
I just don't know, should I not?
Waitin' for a brighter day
I can't find a way
[Verse 3]
I'll go on and on with you
Like to fall and lie with you
I love you too
Whoa, whoa, whoa
[Verse 4]
Baby, I'm too afraid
I just don't know, if it's okay
Tryin' to get away
From everything
[Verse 5]
Why don't you take me home?
It's gone too far, inside this car
I know I'll feel a whole lot more
When I get alone
[Verse 6]
I'll go on and on with you
Like to fall and lie with you
I love you too
Whoa, whoa, whoa
[Verse 7]
Sittin' in the back of a car
Music so loud, can't tell a thing
Thinkin' 'bout what to say
I can't find the lines
