Backseat Windows

[Verse 1]

You wore my sweater

In the middle of June

Said

"I get cold

When I think of you"

You traced your name

On the fogged-up glass

Backseat windows

Holding all our past

[Pre-Chorus]

You said

"Promise me

You'll stay this soft"

I laughed it off

But it cut me deep

Now every street

That we used to cross

Feels like a song

I can't fall asleep

[Chorus]

Backseat windows

Keep playing you back

Little reruns

Of the love we had

Same old angle

Head on my shoulder

Every time I think it's over

Backseat windows

Pull me inside

Watching us almost

Getting it right

Can't drive forward

When I'm stuck on you

Backseat windows

Won't change the view

[Verse 2]

You left your lipstick

In the door side tray

Tiny red echo

Of the days you'd stay

Radio talking

But it's all just haze

I hear your silence

In the empty bass

[Pre-Chorus]

We were almost real

Almost something true

Always one word short

Of "me and you"

Now every stoplight

Colors me in blue

I blink once

And there you are

[Chorus]

Backseat windows

Keep playing you back

Little reruns

Of the love we had

Same old angle

Head on my shoulder

Every time I think it's over

Backseat windows

Pull me inside

Watching us almost

Getting it right

Can't drive forward

When I'm stuck on you

Backseat windows

Won't change the view

[Bridge]

Maybe I should roll them down

(let the night air through)

Let this picture fade a while

Till it looks brand new

But my hands don't move

When it comes to you

I just sit right here

Watching us

Me and you

[Chorus]

Backseat windows

Keep playing you back

Little reruns

Of the love we had

Same old angle

Head on my shoulder

Every time I think it's over

Backseat windows

Pull me inside

Watching us almost

Getting it right

Caught between the past

And something new

Backseat windows

Still show me you
