[Verse 1]
Call 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 they kicked us out, we went for a ride
Laughed 'til we cried
[Pre-Chorus]
It feels like a movie (It feels like a movie)
Everything freezes for a second
I let my memory take a picture I won't delete
I hate when it hits me (I hate when it hits me)
That we're getting older every second
Slippin' away between our fingers in a blink
[Chorus]
Ooh, ooh, ooh
I live for nights like these
(Ahh, ahh)
(Ah)
(Ahh, ahh)
[Verse 2]
We could 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 'bout your dreams, they're not scary as they seem
And I can't wait to watch you make it big
Yeah, you're going far
But, here, at the stars
[Pre-Chorus]
It feels like forever (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? (Don't you think?)
Or we could be strangers (We could be strangers)
The same stupid kids with older faces
I guess, either way, I wouldn't change a single thing
[Chorus]
Ooh, ooh, ooh
I live for nights like these
(Ahh, ahh)
(Ahh, ahh)
(Ahh, ahh)
I live for nights like these
(Ahh, ahh)
(Ahh, ahh) Woah
(Ahh, ahh, ahh)
[Outro]
And, when I'm sixty
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
Ooh, ooh, ooh
I live for nights like these
