Late Nights, Summer Drives
Late Nights and Summer Drives: A Musical Journey of Freedom and Love
Lyrics
I like late nights and summer drives, that's where I'll be
I enjoy spending late nights and going on summer drives; it's my preferred place to be.
Tell me that you're up, baby, where you wanna meet
Tell me if you're available, baby, and suggest a meeting place.
Know I drive fast, yeah, I'm livin' for the speed
I like driving fast, and I live for the thrill of speed.
Told me that she loves me, had that voicemail on repeat
She expressed her love for me in a voicemail, and I listen to it repeatedly.
Sun down, hair down, baby, let me see
As the sun sets, let your hair down; I want to see you in a relaxed state.
Anywhere you are, that's where I'm tryna be
Wherever you are is where I want to be.
One fish, two fish, don't matter to me
The specifics (one fish, two fish) don't matter to me.
Orange skies, purple skies, day is on E
Whether the skies are orange or purple, the time of day doesn't matter (day is on E may refer to the day being empty or ending).
The day is on E
Reiteration that the day is coming to an end or feeling empty.
Moon up high, it's a quarter past three
The moon is high; it's very late at night (quarter past three).
Used to head home when the lights were on the street
I used to go home when street lights came on; now I stay out later than I intend.
Now I'm out later than I ever wanna be
Expressing a change in behavior, staying out later than desired.
And I treat her nice, yeah, she'd hate to see me leave
I treat her well, and she dislikes seeing me leave.
How I hold you tight, but I make you feel free
I provide comfort but also give her space and freedom.
She said that she loves to hear me right before she sleeps
She enjoys hearing from me before sleeping.
Told me hold her hand while I sing her to her dreams
She wants me to hold her hand and sing to her as she dreams.
While I sing her to her dreams
Reiteration of singing her to her dreams.
Late night summer, baby
Reiterating the theme of late-night summer experiences.
There's no place I'd rather be
Expressing contentment with the current situation; nowhere else I'd rather be.
Call me baby, I'ma act up
Call me baby, and I'll act in a carefree or playful manner.
Drifted out on my tire threads, thank God my rack's up
Describing a risky action (drifting on tire threads) and expressing gratitude for safety.
Thank God I'm backed up, thank God my strap's up
Grateful for being supported and well-prepared (strap refers to a firearm).
Stick's in the glove box, thank God I'm packed up
Weapons are in the glove box; feeling prepared for any situation.
And I got a Mack truck just to pull up with all my fiends
Owns a powerful vehicle to accommodate friends.
Too lit when we pull up to the scene
We are lively and energetic when arriving at a location.
Sunrise, yeah, we know it's time to leave
As the sun rises, it's time to leave.
And it's alright, yeah, we know it's time to leave
Acceptance of the inevitable departure; it's alright.
So she knows just what I need
She understands my needs without explicit communication.
And I sing her to her dreams
Continuing the theme of singing her to sleep.
