Lights come up slow on the drive-in screen (Version 2)

Verse

Cherry soda sweating on the hood of your car

Radio static, catching a fuzzy guitar

Cul-de-sac glowing where the sprinklers spin

Screen door slams and summer lets us in

Pre-Chorus

Nobody's calling us home yet

Nobody's watching the clock

Can we just hold this forever

Before the porch light drops

Chorus

Lights come up slow on the drive-in screen

Two kids laughing where the corn stalks lean

Nothing to lose and nowhere to go

Lights come up slow, lights come up slow

Verse

Popsicle melting down onto your wrist

Ferris wheel creaking, we're stuck at the top of the list

Boardwalk lanterns strung on a wire

Sparklers hissing, we're setting the night on fire

Pre-Chorus

Nobody's calling us home yet

Nobody's watching the clock

Can we just hold this forever

Before the porch light drops

Chorus

Lights come up slow on the drive-in screen

Two kids laughing where the corn stalks lean

Nothing to lose and nowhere to go

Lights come up slow, lights come up slow

Bridge

Someday we'll trade these bikes for the highway

Someday these fields turn into towns

But right now the fireflies are rising

And nothing in this world can pull us down

Chorus

Lights come up slow on the drive-in screen

Two kids laughing where the corn stalks lean

Nothing to lose and nowhere to go

Lights come up slow, lights come up slow

Lights come up slow, lights come up slow
