Lyrics
[Verse 1] We played Heads Up in a car in Seattle God rock on the radio You look like a superstar and Dom got into Juilliard And I'm really bad at Heads Up, what do you know? [Verse 2] My drummer fell for a girl in a cookie shop He said he'd make a move and then he went with, "Excuse me?" Came a boy and left a man, gotta give it to the band Greatest one in Oregon [Pre-Chorus 1] And looking back, all I know is [Chorus 1] It was Friday nights, it was video gold Oh, it was shining lights, it was rock 'n' roll It was the band and I on a twelve-bed bus And it was making and messing it up It was endless roads in the same old boots Oh, it was letting go of everything but you It was the band and I on a twelve-bed bus If we're livin' the dream, I hope we never wake up [Verse 3] Snowstorm in the middle of Texas Called my mother in a Denny's and lied Told her I'd been eating, then, told her you were just a friend Told her I was homesick, I hadn't thought of home twice [Pre-Chorus 2] Drive and then we drive again to an ocean And I think I knew it then for a moment [Chorus 1] It was Friday nights, it was video gold Oh, it was shining lights, it was rock 'n' roll It was the band and I on a twelve-bed bus And it was making and messing it up It was endless roads in the same old boots Oh, it was letting go of everything but you It was the band and I on a twelve-bed bus If we're livin' the dream, I hope we never wake up [Refrain] I hope we never wake up I hope we never wake up I hope we never wake [Verse 4] Two nights in the El Rey went flying I'm twenty-one and I feel evergreen The band go home, I stay to write, we drive around, I stay the night Guys, I'm pretty sure it's the American dream [Chorus 2] It was changing clocks, it was Tina stoned Oh, it was midnight stops at border control Yeah, it was power cuts, it was certain doom It was living in the Little Rock laundry room Oh, it was breaking down, it was falling in love In a gas station by the pickup trucks In Philadelphia, it was crystal clear We are the best damn band that's ever played right here [Outro] It was magic, babe, pure and strong It was the last man standing for the Eagles song It was a far-flung wish when we were young Now we're living the dream and I hope we never wake up
