The radio and a sundress Making my world all a mess Back corner of a cornfield Bottle tops and a truth spills Pull the lever, lay the seat back laughin' You slippin' off your shoes While the dashboard speakers sing every word of that night moves I wanna be that song that gets you high Makes you dance, makes you fall That melody rewinds years Once disappear, makes time stall Wanna be those words that fill you up Pull your windows down and keeps you young Makes you believe you're right where you belong I wanna be that song I wanna be, wanna be, wanna be, wanna be that song Oh, I wanna be, I wanna, I wanna I wanna stand with you in the third row Window booth at a bar Back pew on a Sunday pourin' out your heart When the bleachers are crowded When you're sittin' all alone When the rain is pourin' and you need something to take you home Let me be that song that gets you high Makes you dance, makes you fall That melody rewinds years Once disappear, makes time stall Wanna be those words that fill you up Pull your windows down and keeps you young Makes you believe you're right where you belong I wanna be that song I wanna be, wanna be, wanna be, wanna be that song Oh, I wanna be, I wanna, I wanna When you're searching the horizon When your eyes look back When you're standing in the moment Every life has a soundtrack Oh I wanna be, I wanna be, oh I wanna be I wanna be that song that gets you high Makes you dance, makes you fall That melody rewinds years Once disappear, makes time stall Wanna be those words that fill you up Pull your windows down and keeps you young Makes you believe you're right where you belong I wanna be that song When the highway's calling When the bottle's dry When the sky is falling and you're asking yourself why Oh, oh, I wanna be, yeah, oh
