"Jennie" lyrics

"Jennie"

Neon, vacant
Boardwalk, pavement
Summer's finally giving up
Salt air, sunset
Chasing something
Driving, wondering
Where she's gone

Headlights on
As I'm speeding down the road I never turned
Tell myself
If I'm fast enough I'll finally get to her

But oh
Jennie, come back
You're the one I needed
I still, feel you, in my arms and now
I know better
There's no going back at all
I was sleeping and I've finally woken up

Dark sunglasses
Bleach blonde, tan skin
I still see it, the way she smiled
On beach days she'd swim
I didn't know it but
I was blinded by her light

Her wave had crashed and passed me by

Jennie, come back
You're the one I needed
I still, feel you, in my arms and now
I know better
There's no going back at all
I was sleeping and I've finally woken up

Love is the ocean
You either jump in or you don't
She was the current
You're either with her or you're not
And I'll never catch up
Because I waited too long
Time is a straight line
And life always goes on, yeah

Jennie, come back
You're the one I needed
I still, feel you, in my arms and now
I know better
There's no going back at all
I was sleeping and I've finally woken up, yeah
Jennie, come back
You're the one I needed
I still, feel you, in my arms and now
I know better
There's no going back at all
I was sleeping and I've finally woken up, yeah
Jennie, come back
You're the one I needed
I still, feel you, in my arms and now
I know better
There's no going back at all
I was sleeping and I've finally woken up, yeah

Jennie, come back
Jennie, come back to me please
Jennie, come back
Won't you come back to me?
Jennie, come back
