"Landon" lyrics

You started smokin' cause you like the taste of cigarettes
Dropped out of college cause you didn't want to be in debt
And now you're working at a restaurant right off the dive
Mixin' drinks and making small talk
To avoid real life

You sobered up the night your sister asked you for a hit
Refused to share and so
She said you were a hypocrite
You couldn't argue
So you flushed your vices down the drain
Usually I'm not this forward
But it feels like fate

If you're looking for something to do
I've got an urge I can't deny
To waste my time with you
I know we're young but
Sands are slipping through the hourglass
Write a letter, leave the lighter
And get in the passengers side
Landon let's drive

You said you fell in love the first time when you were sixteen
She was on honor roll
And you were on the soccer team
Dated for a year and then she left you for a friend
You said you'd never fall again

If you're looking for something to do
I've got an urge I can't deny
To waste my time with you
I know we're young but
Sands are slipping through the hourglass
Write a letter, leave the lighter
And get in the passengers side
Landon let's drive

I like the way you changed your ways
And every time you look my way
It's like the world, it turns to gray
And everything around me says
That I should keep my eye on you
And wait around for you to choose me
It could be like fifty years
I'm pretty sure I'll still be here

When you're looking for something to do
I've got an urge I can't deny
To waste my time with you
I know we're young but
Sands are slipping through the hourglass
Write a letter, leave the lighter
And get in the passengers side

And if you're lookin' for the time of your life
I know a lonely mediocre girl who's waiting in line
She has a couple free weekends and
A full tank of gas
She had no clue where she was headed 'til
You got into the passengers side

Landon let's drive
