Driving under street lights
Just let me know you're all right
Rolling around in the back seat
With a stranger you'd never meet
Hold out just a little longer
I know it's tough but babe you're stronger
Hold out just a little longer
The fear won't see the break of dawn
How long can you hide this feeling
How long till we just crash this car
Goes 120 down the freeway
Hoping the streetlights guide us home
Your parents would never understand
Why you couldn't just be the man
The son they always wanted
The son that did just what he's told
You're too courageous
They're outdated
I've got you if you've got him
I can hide you for a while
I can make things look okay
They don't need to know you're broken
They don't need to know you're hurt
You don't see the world like they do
You don't see things black and white
Can you hold out a little longer
Can you laugh away your sins
Your parents would never understand
Why you couldn't just be the man
The son they always wanted
The son that did just what he's told
You're too courageous
They're outdated
I've got you if you've got him
I can hide you for a while
I can make things look okay
I love you and they don't know that
I love you and they don't know that
Let's just drive away tonight
What's to stop you now
Don't let them hold you down
Your parents would never understand
Why you couldn't just be the man
The son they always wanted
The son that did just what he's told
You're too courageous
They're outdated
I've got you if you've got him
I can hide you for a while
I can make things look okay
I'm the one that stops you drowning
When you feel like drifting away
Just take my hand and don't stay under
You know that's where they think you belong
