Called me out the blue
You needed something to do
And you had one more seat left in the trunk
You said "We're waiting outside
Don't look at the time"
I put on my favorite sweater,
then we got breakfast for dinner
And when the kicked us out, we went for a ride
Laughed 'til we cried
It feels like a movie
Everything's freezes for a second
I let my memory take a picture I won't delete
I hate when it hits me
That we're getting older every second
Slipping away between our fingers in a blink
Oooh
I live for nights like these
(Ooh, ooh, oooh)
We go park the car
somewhere we can see the stars
And the light pollution isn't so bad
Look out at the lights
The Hollywood heights
Tell me about your dreams,
they're not as scary as they seem
And I can't wait to watch you make it big
Yeah, you're going far
But here at the start
It feels like forever
I don't wanna jinx it if I say it
But we could be friends through all the ages,
don't you think?
Or we could be strangers
The same stupid kids with older faces
I guess either way
I wouldn't change a single thing
Oooh
I live for nights like these
(Ooh, oh, ooh)
I live for nights like these
(Oooh, oh-woaah, oooh)
And when I'm 60
Pulling a box out of the attic
Telling my kids about the past like yesterday
They'll point at the pictures
And I'll hear the laughter in the diner
The smell of the coffee and the pancakes never fades
Oooh
I live for nights like these
