Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Tell me what's the move
You're looking at me like there's something that you gotta prove, yeah
Don't put up a front when you're with me

I know it's hard to be somebody that you're not (mmm)
But you don't gotta try so hard with me
No, you never been a fan of I told you so
You always find your way on my phone

I'm down for another late night
Roll the windows down on I-95, oh oh
We don't need to wait 'til it's the weekend
I can buy the drinks, and you can call a few friends
I'm down for another late night

Oh, oh oh
Oh oh, oh oh
Oh oh, oh
Oh oh, oh oh

So what you wanna do?
We running out of time
When there's still plenty left to do, oh yeah
I need you to be real with me (be real)

And I know it's hard to trust when you're always let down
Know that you'll be alright with me
No, you never been a fan of "I told you so"
You always find your way on my phone

Guess you're still down for another late night
Roll the windows down on I-95, oh oh
We don't need to wait 'til it's the weekend
I can buy the drinks, and you can call a few friends
I'm down for another late night

Oh, oh oh
Oh oh, oh oh




Oh oh, oh
Oh oh, oh oh
