Passenger Side (Featuring Mara Vey)

You remember that night?

(hahaha) Unfortunately.

Good.

I was halfway out of town You were laughing at my plans

You said, “Pull over for a minute” I said,

“We’ve already made the turn” You had your boots up on the

dashboard I had both hands on the wheel

Neither one of us could figure out

What we were supposed to feel

You kept talking like you knew me I kept telling you

you’re wrong

We had twenty dollars between us And somehow that felt like enough

There was music from the speakers And a highway running west You

said, “Sometimes you don’t need answers” I said,

“Sometimes that’s for the best”

We didn’t know where we were headed Didn’t care about

the clock

Sometimes all you really need Is somebody saying,

“Don’t stop”

From the passenger side

I watched the whole world fly Red lights,

small towns And a sky too big to measure From the passenger

side You made a bad night feel right

We didn’t have a plan We just had somewhere to be (ooh-yeah)

I remember that little bar

With the busted front door

You sang three songs with the house band Then they asked you

back for four

You said, “Don’t get too famous.”

Like you weren’t already trying.

You were laughing when you said it.

I was trying to keep you humble.

Didn’t work.

From the passenger side I watched the whole world fly Red lights,

small towns And a sky too big to measure From the passenger

side You made a bad night feel right

We didn’t have a plan We just had somewhere to be (ooh-yeah) (ahhhh)

Maybe we were reckless Maybe we needed that

Maybe some of the best nights Don’t look important at the time

I’ve spent enough years looking back At things I

would’t have changed

But if you handed me those keys tonight I’d probably do the

same damn thing Even the twenty-dollar part?

Especially that part.

From the passenger side I watched the whole world fly

Red lights, small towns

And nowhere we’d rather be tonight

From the passenger side You made a bad night feel right

We didn’t have a plan We just had somewhere to be From

the passenger side

Yeah, I remember that ride Some nights disappear

Some stay with you for life

Come on!

I’m coming! Let’s go!

You still don’t know where we’re going?

Never did.

Good. That’s when it gets interesting.
