Back Of Your Car
Ryan Star Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

It's the perfect time of night,
To be losing your clothes now.
If you carefully take them off,
Then I'll carefully show you how.
In a minute we'll be gone,
So we might as well just f***.
'Cause the churches they're all filled,
Empty prayers are out of luck.

Woah, woah
You're not yourself, you're not yourself tonight.
Woah, woah
You've got your life, now get yourself in mine.
Woah, woah
You won't be sad, you won't be satisfied.
Woah, woah

It's the perfect time of night,
To be losing your mind now.
As the curtains finally fall,
Will you kindly take your bow.
So love our time, don't waste your life.
It's the perfect time of night,
To be losing your clothes.

Woah, woah
You're not yourself, you're not yourself tonight.
Woah, woah
You've got your life, now get yourself in mine.
Woah, woah
You won't be sad, but you won't be satisfied.
Woah, woah

Are you here?
So much fear.
It's the first
Time you need.
It's the first
Time you bleed.

I'll wait for you in the back of my car,
Lets find out who you really are.
I'll never change if you want me to,
You better change if I ask you.
So tell me what is the matter with this,
They say it starts with just one kiss.
We're never gonna be here again.

Woah, woah
You lost yourself, you lost yourself tonight.
Woah, woah
You've got your life, now get yourself in mine.
Woah, woah
You won't be sad, but you won't be satisfied

Overall Meaning

The lyrics to Ryan Star's song Back of Your Car explore the idea of losing yourself in the heat of the moment, taking risks, and embracing your desires. The singer urges their partner to take off their clothes and indulge in fleeting pleasure since there's no telling when it might come again. The chorus highlights the fact that people tend to act differently when they're caught up in the moment, and the singer encourages their partner to let go and embrace the experience. The lyrics then take a more introspective turn, questioning whether the person is really present in the moment or if fear is holding them back. The final lines suggest that these moments are fleeting and that the singer doesn't want to miss out on a chance to connect with someone on a deeper level.


Overall, the song presents an intriguing balance between the want for immediate gratification and the fear of losing oneself in the moment. While the initial verses are full of lust and desire, the lyrics hint at something more meaningful beneath the surface. In contrast to the empty prayers of the churches mentioned, the song suggests that people can find something real and fulfilling in fleeting moments of intimacy.
