"drivers license" lyrics
"drivers license"
I got my driver's license last week
Just like we always talked about
'Cause you were so excited for me
To finally drive up to your house
But today I drove through the suburbs
Crying 'cause you weren't around
And you're probably with that blonde girl
Who always made me doubt
She's so much older than me
She's everything I'm insecure about
Yeah, today I drove through the suburbs
'Cause how could I ever love someone else?
And I know we weren't perfect but I've never felt this way for no one
And I just can't imagine how you could be so okay now that I'm gone
Guess you didn't mean what you wrote in that song about me
'Cause you said forever now I drive alone past your street
And all my friends are tired
Of hearing how much I miss you but
I kinda feel sorry for them
'Cause they'll never know you the way that I do
Yeah, today I drove through the suburbs
And pictured I was driving home to you
And I know we weren't perfect but I've never felt this way for no one
Oh, and I just can't imagine how you could be so okay now that I'm gone
I guess you didn't mean what you wrote in that song about me
'Cause you said forever now I drive alone past your street
Red lights
Stop signs
I still see your face
In the white cars
Front yards
Can't drive past the places
We used to
Go to
'Cause I still fucking love you, babe
Sidewalks
We crossed
I still hear your voice
In the traffic
We're laughing
Over all the noise
God, I'm so blue
Know we're through
But I still fucking love you, babe
I know we weren't perfect but I've never felt this way for no one
And I just can't imagine how you could be so okay now that I'm gone
Guess you didn't mean what you wrote in that song about me
'Cause you said forever now I drive alone past your street
Yeah, you said forever now I drive alone past your street

"Drivers License" is the debut single by Olivia Rodrigo. The song was premiered on January 8, 2021, accompanied by a
music video.
The first snippet of this song was revealed by Olivia Rodrigo on Instagram on the 23rd of July 2020. She captioned it with "wrote dis the other day. vv close to my heart. gonna call it drivers license I think lol."
Speaking with her fans live on YouTube, Olivia Rodrigo explained, "When I came up with 'Drivers License', I was going through a heartbreak that was so confusing to me, so multifaceted. Putting all those feelings into a song made everything seem so much simpler and clearer—and at the end of the day, I think that's really the whole purpose of songwriting. There's nothing like sitting at the piano in my bedroom and writing a really sad song. It's truly my favorite thing in the world."
Upon release, the song reached number one on Spotify, Apple Music and Amazon Music songs charts globally. It debuted atop the Billboard Hot 100 and made Olivia Rodrigo the most recently-born artist to score a number-one single in the United States, and the first artist born in the 21st-century to debut at the top spot. "Drivers License" also reached number one in Australia, Austria, Belgium, Canada, Denmark, Ireland, the Netherlands, New Zealand, Norway, Singapore, Sweden, and the United Kingdom.

I'm not ever like this
I can hold my breath

Driving me insane...

In a back pack
Leave it on the side with the nights you didn't
