Backseat Serenade
All Time Low Lyrics

Lazy lover
Addressing a lover who's not passionate enough

Find a place for me again
Asking the lover to make a place for them in their heart again

You felt it once before
Reminding the lover that they did feel love in the past

I know you did
Asserting their belief in the lover's past love

I could see it
Saying it was evident in their actions

Whiskey Princess
Addressing a lover who drinks a lot

Drink me under, pull me in
Asking the lover to drink with them and get closer

You had me at come over boy
Saying the lover won them over with an invitation

I need a friend
Expressing the desire for a deeper connection with the lover

I understand
Acknowledging the lover's struggles

Backseat serenade
Metaphor for a playful yet intimate moment

Dizzy hurricane
Describing the rush and intensity of the moment

Oh god, I'm sick of sleeping alone
Expressing loneliness and desire for closeness

You're salty like a summer day
Complimenting the lover's flavor and freshness

Kiss the sweat away
Referring to kissing during or after the intimate moment

Backseat serenade
Repeating the metaphor for emphasis

Little hand grenade
Describing the explosive passion and intensity of the moment

You take me over
Saying the lover has control over them

I throw you up against the wall
Describing the physical and passionate nature of the moment

We've seen it all before
Acknowledging that they've been in similar situations

But this one's different
Saying that this moment is special

It's deliberate
Asserting that they are intentionally choosing this moment

You send me reeling
Saying the lover has a strong emotional impact on them

Callin' out to you for more
Asking for more love and passion from the lover

The value of this moment lives in metaphor
Saying that the true meaning of this moment is in the metaphor of the backseat serenade

Yeah, through it all
Saying that they've been through a lot together

(Oh God, I'm sick of sleeping alone)
Repeating the sentiment from earlier

Aren't you sick of sleeping alone?
Asking the lover if they feel the same way

We're salty on a summer day
Referring to the lover's freshness and flavor again

Kiss the pain away
Saying that kissing can relieve emotional pain

To your radio
Setting the scene for the backseat serenade
