The lyrics

Verse 1 Throw your jacket in the back, Leave the keys beneath the mat There’s a full moon on the rise, And a dare behind your eyes No more waiting for a sign, No more wasting borrowed time Turn the engine, make it loud— Let’s get lost before they find us now Pre-Chorus We’ve spent too long behaving Like tomorrow’s guaranteed Tonight the road is calling, And tonight is all we need Chorus Come on, before the streetlights die, We’ve got one road and one good night No looking back, no alibis— Come on, before the streetlights die Let every mile set us free, Leave this sleeping town behind You bring the fire, I’ll bring the speed— Come on, before the streetlights die Verse 2 Radio against the wind, Turn it up and pull me in Every red light turns to green Like the whole world wants us leaving Maybe morning changes things, Maybe daylight cuts our wings But until the stars are gone, Keep your foot down—keep driving on Pre-Chorus We don’t need a destination, We don’t need a reason why Just your hand here on my heartbeat And the highway open wide Chorus Come on, before the streetlights die, We’ve got one road and one good night No looking back, no alibis— Come on, before the streetlights die Let every mile set us free, Leave this sleeping town behind You bring the fire, I’ll bring the speed— Come on, before the streetlights die Bridge Maybe we’re reckless Maybe they’re right But I’d rather burn for one true moment Than disappear without a fight Final Chorus Come on, before the streetlights die, We’ve got one road and one good night No looking back, no alibis— Come on, before the streetlights die Let every mile set us free, Let the sparks fly from the tires You bring the heartbeat, I’ll bring the heat— We’ll outrun the morning light Come on! Before the streetlights die
