Missing Curfew Lyrics

Laying in the back of your pickup truck in a field off 65

Told my mama that I'd be home at eight, but it's half past nine

But the stars just started shining

And it might wake her up if I'm coming in late

It's getting kinda cold out, even with your coat, I'll need you to keep me warm

Movie on a laptop, making my heart stop every time I hear your voice

Whisper in my ear, "Wouldn't wanna be anywhere but here" (oh)

You say we should both head home, and I say I don't wanna go

You say we can stay an hour, but what if my parents wanna know

Well, I'll tell them I got lost on my hometown roads

That I know like the back of my hand

Or my best friend called, boyfriend broke it off

And no one else understands

I'll say, come on, you know it isn't that late

Then they'll let me go

Cause they know what I'll choose

When it comes to missing you or missing curfew

Laying in the back of your pickup truck just a little after midnight

Laughing and singing, then my phone starts ringing, and you look me in the eyes

Twenty minutes later, I'm sitting at my kitchen table

Trying to lie, I should be crying, but I'm smiling instead

Daddy asks me what's so funny, and so I tell him

I got lost on my hometown roads that I know like the back of my hand

Or my best friend called, boyfriend broke it off

And no one else understands

I'll say, come on, you know it isn't that late

Then they'll let me go, cause they know what I'll choose

When it comes to missing you or missing curfew

Friday night, I'm leaving soon, cause I've been crazy missing you

Hand on the door and I hear "stop"

And, "You'll be home by ten"

I say, maybe, but then again

I might get lost on my hometown roads that I know like the back of my hand

Best friend might call, boyfriend breaks it off

Please just understand

I say, come on, you know it won't be that late

Then they let me go

Cause they know it's no use

When it comes to missing you

I'm missing curfew

I'm missing curfew
