'kissing as the cars pass by' is about being 16 and making out with a boy in the backseat of your mom's mini van. it could be about a girl if you want it to be. not for me tho. i did it once and it was strange.
lyrics
is it too dark out
to see a body right in front of me
is anyone around
you lead my body to the backseat
i’ll give up my right to privacy
i’ll show you all
you, buried in the moonlit sky
you, never even have to try
you, kissing as the cars pass by
and we’ll be singing out
take me from myself
don’t speak, show me who you wanna be
when you lay me down
i’m weak, i’ll show you what you want to see
the only souls around are me
and you, buried in the moonlit sky
you, never even have to try
you, kissing as the cars pass by
and we’ll be singing out
you, only one that’s on my mind
you, swaying to the left and right
you, kissing as the cars pass by
and we’ll be singing out
i’ll give up my right to privacy
i’ll show you all
and we’ll be singing out
you, buried in the moonlit sky
you, never even have to try
you, kissing as the cars pass by
and we’ll be singing out
you, only one that’s on my mind
you, swaying to the left and right
you, kissing as the cars pass by
and we’ll be singing out
