— LYRICS —
[Verse 1: Jonathan Capeci]
I still see your face
Every time that record plays
Singin’ “Bad Blood” and “Wildest Dreams”
You were lookin’ right at me
[Pre-Chorus: Jonathan Capeci]
And I hate that now I can’t listen
Without fallin’ all over again
Somewhere I’m still
[Chorus: Jonathan Capeci]
Singin’ loud, windows down, in the back of your car
With your hands on my mouth and the radio on
Now it’s quiet every time that I drive
I lost you and 1989
[Verse 2: Slavo]
I’ve tried cutting the cord off the speakers
I’ve died reliving you through the songs
So please excuse my aversion, ’cause not even her version
Don’t hurt when it comes back on
I swear I’m still
[Chorus: Jonathan Capeci & Slavo]
Singin’ loud, windows down, in the back of your car
With your hands on my mouth and the radio on
Now it’s quiet every time that I drive
I lost you and 1989
[Bridge: Nightly & Fly By Midnight]
Sunsets, no rest, singin’ loud as you can
Still in my head, I don’t wanna forget
Each night, you said, “Are you missin’ me yet?”
You’re in my head, I don’t wanna forget
Sunsets, no rest, singin’ loud as you can
Still in my head, I don’t wanna forget
Each night, you said, “Are you missin’ me yet?”
You’re in my head, I don’t wanna forget
[Chorus: Nightly & Fly By Midnight]
Singin’ loud, windows down, in the back of your car
With your hands on my mouth and the radio on
Now it’s quiet every time that I drive
I lost you and 1989
[Outro: Nightly & Fly By Midnight]
Sunsets, no rest, singin’ loud as you can
Still in my head, I don’t wanna forget
Each night, you said, “Are you missin’ me yet?”
You’re in my head, I don’t wanna forget
I don’t wanna forget
I don’t wanna forget
