Joyride Lyrics by The Backfires

Joyride - Single

2023

[Verse]
Meet you on the other side
Of town, for drinks that are overpriced
Late nights, smoke shops, and disco lights
But I can't take you home
You're a joyride for tomorrow
You've got a mind I want to borrow
And lips for more than what we've started
But I can't take you home

[Pre-Chorus]
'Cause last time
I took a dip inside
Your galaxy eyes
They warped and shined
As you streamed through my veins
I tried to find your
Worst side

[Chorus]
But now
I think I'm drowning in you
Were you just passing through
Or are you drowning too?
But now
I think I'm drowning in you
Were you just passing through
Or are you drowning too?

[Verse]
Meet you on the other side
Dymphnas, Niagara they're overpriced
You've got a tequila smile without the lime
But I can't take you home
You're a joyride for tomorrow
You've got a mind I wanna borrow
And lips for more than what we've started
But I can't take you home

[Pre-Chorus]
'Cause last time
I took a dip inside
Your galaxy eyes
They warped and shined
As you streamed through my veins
I tried to find your
Worst side

[Chorus]
But now
I think I'm drowning in you
Were you just passing through
Or are you drowning too?
But now
I think I'm drowning in you
Were you just passing through
Or are you drowning too?

[Bridge]
Two blind mice take on tomorrow
Can you see how they run?
A joyride of sorrow
New set of dice, fiasco they burrowed
Have you seen in your life
A joyride of sorrow?

[Outro]
You're a joyride stuck on tomorrow
You're a joyride stuck on tomorrow
You're a joyride stuck on tomorrow
And I can't take you home
You're a joyride stuck on tomorrow
You're a joyride stuck on tomorrow
You're a joyride stuck on tomorrow
But can I take you home?
