You showed up late in that ride
Windows stuck but we didn't mind
Our hoodie smelled like smoke and rain
We kissed once then did it again
And I know we said we'd move on
But I keep findin' you in every song
Those nights we swore would never fade
They echo back to me like a sweet cascade
We said forever, but never meant it
Now I drive through towns we invented
The nights stay cold, nothing dismisses
What we were, backseat promises
Found your note in my winter coat
Soft and worn, like something remote
A quiet line that carried your breathe
I folded it twice, left it in the street
And I know we said we'd move on
But I keep findin' you in every song
Those nights we swore would never fade
They echo back to me like a sweet cascade
We said forever, but never meant it
Now I drive through towns we invented
The nights stay cold, nothing dismisses
What we were, backseat promises
Backseat promises
Backseat promises
I pass that street, but never slow
Some things fade, but never go
I pass that street but never slow
Some things fade but never go
I still go back, though there's no reason (oh, oh)
Trace your name in every season
The roads moved on, but I still miss us
Can't outrun those backseat promises
(Oh-oh) backseat promises
(Oh-oh) backseat promises
Yeah, oh-oh, oh-oh
Oh-oh, oh-oh
Oh
Oh-oh-oh, oh, oh-oh
Oh-oh
