Allie woke up 8 am graduation day
                             
got into a car crashed along the way
                    
we arrived late to the wait
               
stole the urn while they looked away
                                           
drove to the beach cuz i knew youd want it that way

              chorus
          
you were standin on the hood of your car
                             
singin out loud when the sun came up
                                     
And i know it wasnt right but it felt so good
                                         
and ya mother didnt mind like i thought she would
                           
that REM song was playin in my mind
                          
3 and half minutes felt like a lifetime


                    
And you move like water
                  
i could drown in you
                   
and i fell so deep once
                      
till you pulled me through

and you tell me no is allowed to be so proud 
                        
everytime when their giving up

         (Chorus)
youll change between fmaj7 and  
c constantly during this verse



Are you standing in the lights 

or combng your hair again and talkin in rymes

are you standing in the lines
                                   
when i got home i heard the phone your parents had arrived
                                        
your dad set his jaw ya mom just smiled and sighed
                                
but they left soon and i went to my room 

played that disc youd givin me
                               
shut my eyes swear i could hear the sea

             (Chorus)
