lyrics

Last call on the last train home
I don't think it's gunna stop and let me on
I'm out of breath and I'm out of shape
This summer you say "this summer's gunna to be the
one to set your eyes on, never gunna leave the driveway without you"

Holding back won't get us anywhere
and I just don't want to stay here

This is for the times we would have it all
and lay in bed thinking "not anymore"
when I get the patience, will it all make sense
no more excuses till we make it

Take a drive down the Highway 36
up and down through Broadway
I'm out of gas and I'm out of luck
When the fall comes you'll say
"we'll make it out better anyway,
never gunna leave the driveway without you"

That summer breeze fills the night
I'm laying on the sidewalk gazing at the stars
it wont be long till the last week of august
before the nights get cold

And all I ask
from this town
give me back what i came for
and all i want
from this god damn city
is one more night alone
