"Santa Barbara" lyrics

Seems strange to write a song about someone
Looking in the rearview, dreaming about the lone sun
I'm not really thinking about the waves or about the next one
Not really about that, you didn't ever like that
And the way you feel to me is all the truth now
I'm not really sure how I love you and that's wow
I'm learning so much about love

Of course I'll make the drive on up to see you
Two hours is nothing
2K was a bit too much for my heart to handle
Threw me down left me so cold
And I could never see it in my mind
That my God is always with me and he's got me in line
But thinking that I gotta know the future is the part
That keeps me up late at night

It keeps me up late at night
Night, all night
It keeps me up late at night

Cause I got used to writing about nothing
Then you came around and girl you finally gave me something
And I don't wanna be a cliche, but kissing you babe
I'm on my knees and praying you're gonna stay
Was seven years but God knew I could handle it
The getting and forgetting who I was was just a part of it
But wow I like you

And I don't wanna tell u that I know what you're going through cause I probably don't
But I gotta be honest with you baby cause I bet your friends probably won't
And I could never see it in my mind
That my God is always with me and he's got me in line
But thinking that I gotta know the future is the part
That keeps me up late at night

Night, night
It keeps me up late at night
Night, all night
It keeps me up late at night
It keeps me up late at night
Night, all night
Keeps me up late at, keeps me up late at
