The radio in a sundress, making my world all a mess
Back corner of a cornfield, bottle tops and the truth spills
Pull the lever, lay the seat back, laughing, you slipping off your shoes
While the dashboard speakers sing every word of nightmare
I wanna be that song that gets you high, makes you dance, makes you fall
That melody, rewinds years, once disappeared, makes time stop
I wanna be those words that fill you up, pull your window down
It keeps you young, makes you believe you're right where you belong
I wanna be that song
I wanna be, wanna be, wanna be, wanna be that song
Oh, wanna be, wanna, wanna
Stand with you in the third row, the window booth at a bar
Back view on a Sunday, pouring out your heart
When the bleachers are crowded, when you're sitting all alone
When the rain is pouring and you need something to take you home
I wanna be that song that gets you high, makes you dance, makes you fall
That melody, rewinds years, once disappeared, makes time stop
I wanna be those words that fill you up, pull your window down
It keeps you young, makes you believe you're right where you belong
I wanna be that song
I wanna be, wanna be, wanna be, wanna be that song
Oh, wanna be, wanna, wanna
When you're searching the horizon, when your eyes look back
When you're standing in the moment, every life has a soundtrack
Oh, wanna be, wanna be, oh I wanna be
I wanna be that song that gets you high, makes you dance, makes you fall
That melody, rewinds years, once disappeared, makes time stop
I wanna be those words that fill you up, pull your window down
It keeps you young, makes you believe you're right where you belong
I wanna be that song
When the highway's calling, when the bottle's dry
When the sky is falling and you're asking yourself why
Oh, I wanna be, I wanna be, yeah
