Lyrics

I remember when we would meet
In the dark of my backseat
Kiss and tell the whole night through
No one would ever miss us

I knew you and you knew me
Every sin and obscenity
Every crack and character flaw
Just two perfect broken pieces

Now we can’t get back to dead end streets
And the time we took is ours to keep
We always knew where this would lead
So we played with fire just to feel the heat

I’m smiling on the outside
But I’m burning on the inside
And I’m praying that we finally meet
Under cover of a dead end street

Drive all over this same old town
Same old me, but you’re not around
Every corner of memory
Of our endless love and our revelry

Now we can’t get back to dead end streets
And the time we took is ours to keep
We always knew where this would lead
So we played with fire just to feel the heat

I’m smiling on the outside
But I’m burning on the inside
And I’m praying that we finally meet
Under cover of a dead end street
