19 Forever

I was Ringo Starr of the dashboard drummers
You were turning up the radio
Sitting in the middle, playing the fiddle
You were hotter than a summer back road
And it’s crazy how I remember that perfectly
When we set sail away in a white Chevrolet
With a Jerry Jet sticker on the glass
We cut through the night like the KC lights
Knowing summertime wasn’t gonna last
And we swore that wouldn’t matter
And we’d stay like that together
But we’re not, 'cause we’re not nineteen forever
I remember the time you asked me for a ride
If I could teach you how to drive stick
You burned through the clutch and I burned to the touch
Every tan line wrapping your skin
And I still see every memory
When we set sail away in a white Chevrolet
With a Jerry Jet sticker on the glass
We cut through the night like the KC lights
Knowing summertime wasn’t gonna last
And we swore that wouldn’t matter
And we’d stay like that together
But we’re not, no we’re not nineteen forever
And I still sing along
With all those old songs
Well I know it’s wrong, I know it’s wrong
I know it’s wrong
I gotta move on
When we set sail away in a white Chevrolet
With a Jerry Jet sticker on the glass
We cut through the night like the KC lights
Knowing summertime wasn’t gonna last
And we swore that wouldn’t matter
And we’d stay like that together
But we’re not, no we’re not nineteen forever
