Streetlights on, the night air's cool
I'm driving right past my old school
I'm looking for my pack of cigarettes
I'm thinking back on things I've done
I can't forget the stupid ones
It seems I do my best by accident

What's that sound, what's that song
What's this street I'm driving on
In my car
In my car

I miss her feel, her touch, her taste
I feel the distance every place
This distance can't be taken casually
I take my time, just drive around
Feeling lost in my hometown
Every turn I take is comforting

What's that sound, what's that song
What's this street I'm driving on
In my car
In my car

I'll take a break from all their big plans
My first mistake was listening to them
I made a mess it's all been proven
Over and over again
Over and over again

Streetlights on, the night air's cool
I'm driving right past my old school
Looking for some face I can't forget
I take my time, just drive around
Feeling lost in my hometown
Every turn I take's an accident

What's that sound, what's that song
What's this street I'm driving on
In my car
In my car

What's that sound, what's that song
What's this street I'm driving on
In my car
In my car
My Car (What that's sound, what's that song)
My Car (What that's sound, what's that song)
My Car (What that's sound, what's that song)
My Car (What that's sound, what's that song)
My Car (What that's sound, what's that song)

Gin Blossoms

Gin Blossoms is an American rock band formed in 1987 in Tempe, Arizona. They rose to prominence following the 1992 release of their first major label album, New Miserable Experience, and the first single released from that album, “Hey Jealousy”. “Hey Jealousy” became a Top 25 hit and went gold, and New Miserable Experience eventually went quadruple platinum; four other charting singles were released from the album. The band’s follow-up album, Congratulations I’m Sorry (1996), went platinum and the single “As Long as It Matters” was nominated for a Grammy Award. Gin Blossoms broke up in 1997. Since reuniting in 2001, the band has released Major Lodge Victory in 2006, No Chocolate Cake in 2010, and Mixed Reality in 2018.
