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
