lyrics

Looking back at all the times we drove down crooked creek at night
There's no doubt in my mind that I'll remember those drives
For a lifetime I'll keep you all around
You get me up when I feel down
And all the times we sat up on the rooftops
Talking about all our favorite nights
Falling off the edge sometimes
The knots on the ceiling seem to be the only eyes watching us

Our bad luck has turned around
We've struck gold in this small town

The moon will follow us home tonight
We've got the front seat on this ride
Nothing seems to be able to slow us down

I'll fast forward years from now
If you're not around we'll catch up somehow
We'll all be holding on yea so tight we're all here for the long ride
Staying up till 4am our favorite songs are on again
Nothing seems to be able to slow us down

Our bad luck has turned around
We've struck gold in this small town

The moon will follow us home tonight
We've got the front seat on this ride
Nothing seems to be able to slow us down

And I'd rather sink than stay afloat because
You don't understand
I'd rather sink than stay afloat with people who don't understand me

Our bad luck has turned around
We've struck gold in this small town

The moon will follow us home tonight
We've got the front seat on this ride
Nothing seems to be able to slow us down
