  • 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

    And you're probably with that blonde girl
    Who always made me doubt
    She's so much older than me
    She'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
    Guess 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
    'Cause 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, oh
    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 we used to go to
    'Cause I still fuckin' love you, babe (ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh)
    Sidewalks we crossed
    I still hear your voice in the traffic, we're laughing
    Over all the noise
    God, I'm so blue, know we're through
    But I still fuckin' love you, babe (ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh)

    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
    'Cause you didn't mean what you wrote in that song about me
    'Cause you said forever, now I drive alone past your street
    Yeah, you said forever, now I drive alone past your street Writer/s: Daniel Nigro, Olivia Rodrigo
