Midnight

You come and pick me up

No headlights

A long drive

Could end in burning flames

Or paradise

Fade into view - oh

It's been a while since I have even

Heard from you

I should just tell you to leave

'Cause I know exactly where it leads

But I watch us go 'round and 'round

Each time



Chorus:

You got that James Dean

Daydream look in your eye

And I got that red lip classic

Thing that you like

And when we go crashing down

We come back every time

'Cause we never go out of style

We never go out of style

You got that long hair slicked back

White T-shirt

And I got that good girl faith

And a tight little skirt



And when we go crashing down

We come back every time

'Cause we never go out of style

We never go out of style



So it goes

He can't keep his wild eyes

On the road

Takes me home

Lights are off he's taking

Off his coat

I say I heard - oh

You've been out and about,

With some other girl

He says what you heard is

True but I can't stop thinking about you

And I, I said I've been there too a few times



[Chorus]



Take me home

Take me home

Take me home



[Chorus]
