Last call at the dancehall, lights flicker out Friends sayin' goodbyes, I ain't ready now Empty house waitin', but I don't wanna go You offer a ride, I say "Yes, but slow" Keys jingle in your hand, that smile in your eyes Stars are all waitin' for our midnight drive Drive me home, real slow Windows down, hearts glow Let's take the long way, no need to go Just drive me home, real slow Let the night stretch on forever more We'll find every back road worth explorin' Drive me home, real slow Empty highway stretched beneath summer skies Just your laugh and the radio fillin' the night I slide a little closer on this leather seat Your hand on the gearshift brushes against me Each mile marker passin' gives me butterflies Every wrong turn feels so perfectly right Maybe we could stop by the lookout point Watch the stars make the sky their own My fingertips trace patterns on your hand Let's not find my driveway, not just yet 'Cause every mile's another reason not to say goodnight You shift the gears, I shift closer tonight Drive me home, real slow These windows down, how our hearts glow Every glance, every breath makes time stand still Just drive me home, real slow Let the night stretch on forever more We're making the stars jealous, that's for sure Drive me home, real slow Drive me home... so slow The destination don't matter much tonight It's the journey that's got me feeling alive
