Maybe it was cool for just one night
We talked until the break of daylight
The sunlight burning bright opens my eyes
To all the street signs on the outside
They all look the same
They point me to the direction that my life is passing by

Maybe we can leave this town just for one night
And drive out past the northern lights
Define our place and time
(Define our place and time)
No one ever wants to be
Buried beneath suburban streets
Before they got the chance to leave
(Before they got the chance to leave)

Maybe it was wrong to make this right
And risk throwing our lives all for one night
But at least we felt alive
For all the nights that we don't fall asleep
Til the sun comes up to the morning heat
I drove home alone just wishing
They were more than memories

Maybe we can leave this town just for one night
And drive out past the northern lights
Define our place and time
(Define our place and time)
No one ever wants to be
Buried beneath suburban streets
Before they got the chance to leave
(Before they got the chance to leave)

Maybe we can leave this town just for one night
And drive out past the northern lights
Define our place and time
(Define our place and time)
No one ever wants to be
Buried beneath suburban streets
Before they got the chance to leave
(Before they got the chance to leave)
