Drivers License (feat. BBC Concert Orchestra) [Live at the BBC] Lyrics

I got my driver's license last week
Just like we always talked about
'Cause you were so excited for me
To finally drive up to your house

But today I drove through the suburbs
Cryin' 'cause you weren't around

You're probably with that blonde guy
Who always made me bow
He's so much smarter than me
He's everything I'm insecure about

Yeah, today I drove through the suburbs
'Cause how could I ever love someone else?

And I know we weren't perfect but I've never felt this way for no one
And I just can't imagine how you could be so okay now that I'm gone
Because you didn't mean what you wrote in that song about me
'Cause you said forever, now I drive alone past your street

And all my friends are tired
Of hearing how much I miss you, but
I kinda feel sorry for them
They'll never know you the way that I do

Yeah, today I drove through the suburbs
And pictured I was driving home to you

And I know we weren't perfect but I've never felt this way for no one
And I just can't imagine how you could be so okay now that I'm gone
I guess you didn't mean what you wrote in that song about me
'Cause you said forever, now I drive alone past your street

Red lights, stop signs
I still see your face in the white cars, front yards
Can't drive past the places where we used to go to
'Cause I still really you, babe (ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh)
I said side walks we crossed

I still hear your voice in the traffic, we're laughing
Over all the noise
God, I'm so blue, we're through
But I still really love you, babe (ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh)

I know we weren't perfect but I've never felt this way about no one
And I just can't imagine how you could be so okay now that I'm gone
'Cause you didn't mean what you wrote in that song about me
'Cause you said forever, now I drive alone past your street

You said forever, now I drive alone past your street
'Cause you said forever, now I drive alone past your street
