"Same Streets" lyrics

I think about you in the evening when I'm supposed to forget
The way those eyes lit up the sky, those times, they came and they went
I try to get back to those first nights
Time heals, but it don't change minds
So I drive the same streets, hoping it's not too late to try again

Know I tell her how we can't stay true
Years they sped off, we both went loose
We were so alone, too scared to sit tight
Should've changed, but it don't feel new
I never had to throw on an act around you once
We would drive nowhere to feeling something
In that red Nissan you still love
I'm praying for you even though I know things ain't that straightforward

Baby, tell me what it is you afraid of
Half the problems that we got are just made up
There's no beacon I can light to bring you close
Nights I'd like to own

I think about you in the evening when I'm supposed to forget
The way those eyes lit up the sky, those times, they came and they went
I try to get back to those first nights
Time heals, but it don't change minds
So I drive the same streets, hoping it's not too late to try again

There were times when I was away
Take a look at all this bread that we made, that girl would somehow make it all gray
But it still seems nothing has changed and I'm jaded
Everything ain't so sweet, hard to think with all your thoughts at the times we speak
Miss the way that you would call a one and only
That's a feeling only you know and I know, and it still ain't left so

Tell me what it is you're afraid of
Half the problems that we got are just made up
There's no beacon I can light to bring you close
Nights I'd like to own

I think about you in the evening when I'm supposed to forget (Evening)
The way those eyes lit up the sky, those times, they came and they went
I try to get back to those first nights (Ooh)
Time heals, but it don't change minds
So I drive the same streets, hoping it's not too late to try again
