It's midnight in California

Been drinkin' all day with my friends

We met a group of pretty girls from Georgia

A couple guys from Amsterdam

It was all night or use my discretion

So I slipped out and slipped on home

I was just gonna leave you a message

But I was so damn glad you picked up the phone 'cause

Right now, I'm spinnin' like a barstool

Right now, I'm missin' your pretty smile

In the back of a cab in the carpool lane

Goin' insane 'cause it's been a while

Since I told you that I love you, and I still do

Wish I was layin' right beside ya

Just had to let you know, but I'll let you go

I know it's 3 am in Carolina

Since I got you, there's some things that I wanna say

I didn't wanna leave you, didn't make me wanna stay

Don't get me wrong

I made you cry more than I made you laugh

If I didn't, I wouldn't be here saying that

Right now, I'm spinnin' like a barstool

Right now, I'm missin' your pretty smile

In the back of a cab in the carpool lane

Goin' insane 'cause it's been a while

Since I told you that I love you, and I still do

Wish I was layin' right beside ya

Just had to let you know, but I'll let you go

I know it's 3 am in Carolina

Uh, 3 am in Carolina

Oh yeah, now

Right now, I'm wantin' you so bad

Right now, I really wanna change my life

Right now, I'm thinkin' 'bout takin' that

Get you back on the next LAX red-eye flight

Right now, I'm spinnin' like a barstool

Right now, I'm missin' your pretty smile

In the back of a cab in the carpool lane

Goin' insane 'cause it's been a while

Since I told you that I love you, and I still do

Wish I was layin' right beside ya

Just had to let you know, but I'll let you go

I know it's 3 am in Carolina

It's 3 am in Carolina

Yeah

It's midnight in California

I've been drinkin' all day with my friends now, oh
