Where the River Bends

Lyrics

[Verse 1] Saturday spilled through the apartment door Red shoes scattered across the floor You drew a smiley on my takeaway cup Said, “One more stop,” and the whole crew jumped [Pre-Chorus] We had no plan, just a borrowed car A paper map and a beat-up guitar The morning train could wait its turn Tonight’s the kind of night we’ll never learn [Chorus] We’re running where the river bends Laughing like we’re seventeen again No receipts, no regrets, no reason to go home Call your friends, tell them we’re not alone When the sun comes up, we’ll figure it out Till then, turn the whole town inside out We’re making little sparks wherever we go And nobody’s ready for the afterglow [Verse 2] Your jacket smells like rain and fries There’s glitter stuck beside your eyes A taxi driver knows the chorus by heart We miss our exit and call it a start [Pre-Chorus] We had no plan, just a borrowed car A paper map and a beat-up guitar The morning train could wait its turn Tonight’s the kind of night we’ll never learn [Chorus] We’re running where the river bends Laughing like we’re seventeen again No receipts, no regrets, no reason to go home Call your friends, tell them we’re not alone When the sun comes up, we’ll figure it out Till then, turn the whole town inside out We’re making little sparks wherever we go And nobody’s ready for the afterglow [Bridge] If tomorrow asks, we’ll say we lost the time Found it underneath the vending machine light You take my hand, I take the long way round The best stories start when plans break down [Final Chorus] We’re running where the river bends Laughing like we’re seventeen again No receipts, no regrets, no reason to go home Call your friends, tell them we’re not alone When the sun comes up, we’ll figure it out Till then, turn the whole town inside out We’re making little sparks wherever we go And nobody’s ready for the afterglow [Outro] One more stop, one more song If the night is right, we’ll keep it going on
