Backseat Promises lyrics

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 breath 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 Backseat promises (Oh-oh) backseat promises Yeah, oh-oh, oh-oh Oh-oh, oh-oh Oh Oh-oh-oh, oh, oh-oh Oh-oh
