[Chorus]
Saw you drivin' down the highway yesterday
Nah, it wasn't you; I know you far away
Told me, "Don't worry, I'll be back someday"
Hope on what it seems, and it just seems that way
Lately all of my dreams been that way
Sayin' all the things I never got to say
Not that I forgot to say
It ain't okay, 'cause you never know if it could be the last day
[Verse 1]
Here's a story about a girl change a boy's life
Only there for a second, but she did right
Give anything just for another night
They say all is replaceable, ha! Not quite
All those people don't know it, but they been wrong
Won't be able to relate to the words in this song
Tried to make you feel, but without her I'd never felt
Maybe humbled as I learned all the cards she was dealt
No matter what her hand was, she played the game
Made me realize if she could that I could do the same
Livin' proof that strength grows from great pain
The haters try to keep you down, so you break chains
Go out and tell it how it is and take names
No time for the drama and useless mind games
She said, "This is the way I live my game"
I said, "Damn, try livin' the same"
[Chorus]
Saw you drivin' down the highway yesterday
Nah, it wasn't you; I know you far away
Told me, "Don't worry, I'll be back someday"
Hope on what it seems, and it just seems that way
Lately all of my dreams been that way
Sayin' all the things I never got to say
Not that I forgot to say
It ain't okay, 'cause you never know if it could be the last day
[Verse 2]
You ever have someone come just when you need it
And leave a second before you're able to believe it?
Like when it's rainin' just when you wanna go outside
Maybe take a stroll, maybe take a bike ride
The clouds break—there's the sunshine!
So happy, gotta get ready, so you run inside
It'll be there for a while, think you got time
And it's gone before you even get your shoes tied
So when you feel, you can say it with no need to pretend it
A heartfelt call or text, just send it
Could be your last chance, so I recommend it
Time is somethin' that no one should ever mess with
Never know how fast somethin' could happen and ended
Take nothin' for granted, and friendship is a privilege
I had a past she taught me how to live with
Time we had was the best, I'm just sayin' that I miss it
[Chorus]
Saw you drivin' down the highway yesterday
Nah, it wasn't you; I know you far away
Told me, "Don't worry, I'll be back someday"
Hope on what it seems, and it just seems that way
Lately all of my dreams been that way
Sayin' all the things I never got to say
Not that I forgot to say
It ain't okay, 'cause you never know if it could be the last day (day—damn)
[Verse 3]
Saw a girl from the back yesterday
Damn, thought it was you
I know it couldn't be anyway
But wishing's just all I can do
I know we gonna have more time together
And stressing 'cause I know I'll do whatever
When the hand's on a heart we think it's just there
Only when its left do we see the imprint left there
I'm talkin' 'bout the fingerprints on our soul
Some have left holes that others make whole
So that everyone you meet and make an impact
It could be a smile, it could be a laugh
It could be your first meaning or it could be your last
'Cause in the end, time moves too fast
And I'm hopin' for us it was the first
'Cause something that good ain't made for the worst
[Outro]
Saw you drivin' down the highway yesterday
Nah, it wasn't you; I know you far away
Told me, "Don't worry, I'll be back someday"
Hope on what it seems, and it just seems that way
Lately all of my dreams been that way
Sayin' all the things I never got to say
Not that I've forgot to say
But it's okay, I know you're gonna come back one day
Saw you drivin' down the highway yesterday
Nah, it wasn't you; I know you far away
Told me, "Don't worry, I'll be back someday"
Hope on what it seems, and it just seems that way
Lately all of my dreams been that way
Sayin' all the things I never got to say
Not that I forgot to say
It ain't okay, 'cause you never know if it could be the last day
