Say It Like You Mean It – Junior & Wren

Verse

Parking lot lit like a movie set

Radio static, cigarette

You're spinning stories with your hands

About every place we've never stood

Nineteen and starving for the world

Counting exits on the interstate

Your voice goes soft when you say my name

Like you're already saying goodbye

Chorus

Say it like you mean it

Not like a song you learned to sing

Say it like the summer's ending

Say it like it means everything

We've got maybe one more season

Before we scatter with the wind

So say it like you mean it

Say it like you mean it

Verse

Porch light buzzing, moths against the screen

Your sneakers dangling off the ledge

You talk about the coast, the cold Pacific

Like it's already something that we did

I keep the moment in my pocket

Like a ticket stub I'll lose too soon

Every clock feels like it's cheating

Every hour disappears too fast

Chorus

Say it like you mean it

Not like a song you learned to sing

Say it like the summer's ending

Say it like it means everything

We've got maybe one more season

Before we scatter with the wind

So say it like you mean it

Say it like you mean it

Bridge

Maybe we don't get another

Maybe this is all we get

Two kids on a hood of a Chevy

Watching headlights fade to jet

So forget the plans, forget tomorrow

Stay right here while the engine hums

I don't want the version that we settle for

I want the one where nobody runs

Chorus

Say it like you mean it

Not like a song you learned to sing

Say it like the summer's ending

Say it like it means everything

We've got maybe one more season

Before we scatter with the wind

So say it, say it like you mean it

Scream it like you mean it

Say it like you mean it
