Green Lights Lyrics

Just uh, just an idea that- it's just uh

An idea that he thinks is cool

Or that um- he likes drivin'

Somethin' like that

Green lights as far as I can see

And there is no place that I would rather be

'Cause there's nothin' left out here for me

These are the moments I feel free

The clock strikes 12 and I'm on my way home

But before I return, I need to roam

So I go out searching in the quiet of the night

And I hope that the streets get it right

Capitol takes me to the east

Six more stops until we reach the sea

It only spans about a mile

But roll your windows down, this could take a while

Oakland Ave when no one is around

Feels like such a ghost-town

Seven banks and five coffee shops

I don't know if I recognize this street, or not

On Lake Dr, the waves crash beneath

And the leaves, they rustle on the trees

All the castles, and all their majesty

I wonder what they see

The clock strikes 12 and I'm on my way home

But before I return, I need to roam

So I go out searching for the answers in the night

And I hope that the streets get it right

I hope that the streets get it right

Yes, I hope that the streets get it right

Green lights as far as I can see

and there is no place that I would rather be

So go to sleep, don't you wait up for me

'Cause green lights are all that I see

I don't have a pla- I don't have a-

I got nowhere to go

But, I'm just cruisin'

Everybody else- I'm goin' this way, I'm goin' that way

Tryna see what it looks like

Tryna go find that way

But me, no

Just, I got nowhere to go

Just out for a- out for a drive

Cruisin'
