German Cars

I met you at a party You were lookin for your car keys Rich kids and Bob Marley Yeah, they're never any fun So we drove out to the ocean Just to finally feel some motion The waves sounded like explosions And we counted every one And you kissed like the queen of California And it felt like I hadn't been born I really miss you, west coast JV I know you had to get yourself free I know it gets hard just to breathe sometimes I'm never gonna forget your name I'll never see the world quite the same I'll always keep a part of your dreams with mine With mine You and me, we're different pages Torn out of the same book My parents they just gave up And yours wore each other down We spent so long believin' We were less than what we needed 20 years of screaming And we barely made a sound But you kissed like the queen of California And it felt like I hadn't been born I really miss you, west coast JV I know you had to get yourself free I know it gets hard just to breathe sometimes I'm never gonna forget your name I'll never see the world quite the same I'll always keep a part of your dreams with mine With mine And we hated the way everybody talked About their father's money and their summer jobs Princes and princesses trying to get lost In german cars that their parents bought In the fade and the glow of the summer light You asked me if i ever felt the pressure to get everything right To swim the mess, to stay the course To be someone that they adore I really miss you west coast JV I know you wore your heart on your sleeve And i know it gets hard just to breathe sometimes I'm always gonna call out your name I'll never see the world quite the same I'll always keep a part of your dreams with mine With mine
