drivers license Lyrics

[00:08.69] I got my driver's license last week
[00:11.89] Just like we always talked about
[00:15.12] 'Cause you were so excited for me
[00:18.53] To finally drive up to your house
[00:21.68] But today, I drove through the suburbs
[00:24.95] Crying 'cause you weren't around
[00:31.74] And you're probably with that blonde girl
[00:35.10] Who always made me doubt
[00:38.49] She's so much older than me
[00:41.02] She's everything I'm insecure about
[00:44.18] Yeah, today I drove through the suburbs
[00:48.05] 'Cause how could I ever love someone else?
[00:54.32] And I know we weren't perfect, but I've never felt this way for no one
[01:04.41] And I just can't imagine how you could be so okay now that I'm gone
[01:14.22] Guess you didn't mean what you wrote in that song about me
[01:21.09] 'Cause you said forever, now I drive alone past your street
[01:28.57] And all my friends are tired
[01:30.85] Of hearing how much I miss you, but
[01:35.24] I kinda feel sorry for them
[01:37.71] 'Cause they'll never know you the way that I do
[01:40.75] Yeah, today I drove through the suburbs
[01:44.40] And pictured I was driving home to you
[01:51.08] And I know we weren't perfect, but I've never felt this way for no one, oh
[02:00.86] And I just can't imagine how you could be so okay now that I'm gone
[02:10.58] I guess you didn't mean what you wrote in that song about me
[02:17.65] 'Cause you said forever, now I drive alone past your street
[02:24.58] Red lights, stop signs
[02:27.92] I still see your face in the white cars, front yards
[02:34.45] Can't drive past the places we used to go to
[02:40.97] 'Cause you know I still love you, babe (ooh, ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh)
[02:50.91] Sidewalks we crossed
[02:54.55] I still hear your voice in the traffic
[02:59.15] We're laughing over all the noise
[03:03.63] God, I'm so blue, know we're through
[03:07.78] But you know I still love you, babe (ooh, ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh)
[03:17.94] I know we weren't perfect, but I've never felt this way for no one
[03:27.79] And I just can't imagine how you could be so okay now that I'm gone
[03:37.62] Guess you didn't mean what you wrote in that song about me
[03:44.34] 'Cause you said forever, now I drive alone past your street
[03:51.08] Yeah, you said forever, now I drive alone past your street
[03:55.55]
