All my favorite songs are from 2018 We flew around the world with our small-town dreams You're a superstar and you wear it so well But nothin' like you in my hoodie double XL Bloodstream full of desert lightnin' Thank God I'm not drivin' A blur the whole way home I still remember, I will forever Backseat secrets we won't ever tell, I miss you double XL Miss Americana and all my friends love ya Back patio at the Bowery Hotel, I miss you double XL You've been goin' out in the glitter and glow Hollywood fades and it's startin' to show I'm barely hangin' on and I'm lookin' for help Every night without you hurtin' double XL Bloodstream full of desert lightnin' Thank God I'm not drivin' A blur the whole way home I still remember, I will forever Backseat secrets we won't ever tell, I miss you double XL Miss Americana and all my friends love ya Back patio at the Bowery Hotel, I miss you double XL Baby, we'll always have California Half of me will always be waitin' for ya I still remember, I will forever Backseat secrets we won't ever tell, I miss you double XL Miss Americana and all my friends love ya Back patio at the Bowery Hotel, I miss you double XL Baby, we'll always have California Half of me will always be waitin' for ya Baby, we'll always have California Half of me will always be waitin' for ya (I miss you double XL)

Out Of My League 03:25

She loves the sand, she loves the bar Got half the beach left in my car Sweetheart from a sweet home Alabama trailer park Straight off the page of a magazine A quintessential beauty queen My Princess Di in vintage tees and torn-up jeans Everybody thinks I'm lying When I say she's mine 'cause She's out of my league in every single way And can you believe she's sleeping at my place It's just a matter of time But I hope she never realizes She's so much better than me She's out of my league She's out of my league I told my mom that I'm in love I sent a pic, dad's got a crush Best friends are pumped, throwing high fives, wishing me luck Sometimes I think that if she left How could I ever love again? I must be doing something right 'cause she hasn't left, yet She's out of my league in every single way And can you believe she's sleeping at my place It's just a matter of time But I hope she never realizes She's so much better than me She's out of my league And I don't mind it My silver lining She colors life in My Princess Di, yeah I think I'm flying My silver lining She colors life in My Princess Di She's out of my league in every single way And I can't believe she's sleeping at my place It's just a matter of time But I hope she never realizes She's so much better than me She's out of my league And I don't mind it My silver lining (She's out of my league) She colors life in My Princess Di, yeah (She's out of my league) I think I'm flying My silver lining (She's out of my league) She colors life in My Princess Di, yeah

Tattoos in Tokyo, weekends in Mexico Still haven't seen the pyramids or the Rolling Stones Black Harley Davidsons, sugar and cinnamon Pick up the pieces of my heart, fall in love again When I'm in my head And feel like I got nothing left It's easy to forget There will be days You can't catch a break The sun is stuck behind the clouds There will be times When you lose your light But don't you let it get you down We're here right now We're here right now Summertime innocence, learn how to kiss in French Stay up all night and watch the stars fade at 6 AM And when I lose the high I know it's OK to cry Everybody does sometimes There will be days You can't catch a break The sun is stuck behind the clouds There will be times When you lose your light But don't you let it get you down We're here right now We're here right now When I'm in my head And feel like I got nothing left It's easy to forget That life is such a gift There will be days You can't catch a break The sun is stuck behind the clouds There will be times When you lose your light But don't you let it get you down We're here right now We're here right now We're here right now We're here right now Oh yeah, tattoos in Tokyo, weekends in Mexico Still haven't seen the pyramids or the Rolling Stones Black Harley Davidsons, sugar and cinnamon Pick up the pieces of my heart and fall in love again

Our knees were touching in the back of the car when they didn't need to But you didn't move yours and I didn't move mine Our eyes kept locking in the back of the bar when they didn't mean to But you didn't move yours and I didn't move mine I know you're going home with someone else I wish that it was me but it's not Can't talk to you so I talk about you when I talk to God I pray everyday That they break your heart in the nicest way Or they make a mistake Yeah, the kind that even time can't change And you take a few nights Let your tears dry 'Cause it wasn't meant to be I pray everyday That you fall in love, fall in love with me I shoulda kissed you You were next to me on New Year's Eve But I was scared to mess it up And every night, it takes me way too long to fall sleep I'm wide awake and it's because I know you're going home with someone else I wish that it was me but it's not Can't talk to you so I talk about you when I talk to God I pray everyday That they break your heart in the nicest way Or they make a mistake Yeah, the kind that even time can't change And you take a few nights Let your tears dry 'Cause it wasn't meant to be I pray everyday That you fall in love, fall in love Yeah, they lose your trust So you pack your stuff Yeah, you've had your fun But you know it's done So you call me up, you don't walk, you run 'Cause I'm everything you want I pray everyday That they break your heart in the nicest way Or they make a mistake Yeah, the kind that even time can't change And you take a few nights Let your tears dry It wasn't meant to be I pray everyday That you fall in love with me

I gotta get outta here We live on different streets but we share the same pain Her stepdad doesn't even know her middle name And you're so good at everything but lovin' me And hate the man I hope to be Two choices, stay or leave What good is it to dream If we ain't gonna move our feet? So Saturday, runaway, get out of the circus Little town, never found any kind of purpose We both know our broken hearts deserve this (Oh) 'Cause home is where the hurt is We live on different streets, but we share the same world Her stepdad doesn't even know she's into girls And half my friends are drunk or hooked on somethin' worse The other half just wish they were Two choices, stay or leave What good is it to dream If we ain't gonna move our feet? So Saturday, runaway, get out of the circus Little town, never found any kind of purpose We both know our broken hearts deserve this (Oh) 'Cause home is where the hurt is Sunset, 40 West, head for that horizon Don't you look back again, gotta keep on drivin' We both know our broken hearts deserve this (Oh) 'Cause home is where the hurt is Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh Oh, Saturday, runaway, get out of the circus Little town, never found any kind of purpose We both know our broken hearts deserve this (Oh) 'Cause home is where the hurt is Sunset, 40 West, head for that horizon Don't you look back again, gotta keep on drivin' We both know our broken hearts deserve this (Oh) 'Cause home is where the hurt is Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh ('Cause home is where the hurt is) Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh ('Cause home is where the hurt is) Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh ('Cause home is where the hurt is) Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh ('Cause home is where the hurt is) Ooh-ooh-ooh Ooh-ooh-ooh

When you get that call that you weren't prepared for Or if That call that you want never comes at all When you need to fly, but you're stuck on the freeway Or if Your feet wanna run, but your best is a crawl You can't give up, but you can't count on love And if you think you're the only one, welcome to the club 'Cause Everybody is gonna let you down And life will dance on your heart Don't believe me? Take a look around, it all falls, even the stars Hope you know when you can't catch a break It even rains in LA It even rains in LA When you're coming home to an empty apartment Or if You got someone there, but they want someone else You can't give up, but you can't count on love And if you think you're the only one, welcome to the club 'Cause Everybody is gonna let you down And life will dance on your heart Don't believe me? Take a look around, it all falls, even the stars Hope you know when you can't catch a break It even rains in LA It even rains in LA Remember on your bad days It even rains in LA You're out of breath, you're out of reasons You're out there looking for a sign of significance Got nothing left, you're out of feelings You're out there screaming at the sky, "What's the point of this?" Everybody is gonna let you down And life will dance on your heart Don't believe me? Take a look around, it all falls, even the stars Hope you know when you can't catch a break It even rains in LA It even rains in LA Remember on your bad days It even rains in LA

Heartbreak can wait 'Cause I'm too scared to let you go Yeah I know I gotta do this But I'm making up excuses Not to be alone Still haven't made it up the PCH Still haven't kissed you in the pouring rain Birthday 'round the corner, couple weeks away So I'm holding on Things are going good but they're not going great You've been working hard and I've been working late The words that I've been thinking I don't really wanna say So I'm holding on Heartbreak can wait 'Cause I'm too scared to let you go Yeah I know I gotta do this But I'm making up excuses Not to be alone Heartbreak can wait But I don't wanna waste your time So I'm 'a take your hand and hold it Like I'm never letting go Before I say goodbye Heartbreak can wait Haven't slept a second in the last seven nights Living in my head, I'm rehearsing every line I know that there's no way that we're not gonna cry So I'm holding off Desperate for my soul to softly say It's OK to stay a few more days Heartbreak can wait 'Cause I'm too scared to let you go Yeah I know I gotta do this But I'm making up excuses Not to be alone Heartbreak can wait But I don't wanna waste your time So I'm 'a take your hand and hold it Like I'm never letting go Before I say goodbye Wait a second, I feel like my stomach's in my throat Why is it the ones you love, the ones you hurt the most Went as far as I can run but now I'm out of road I gotta let you know, I gotta let you know Wait a second, I feel like my stomach's in my throat Why is it the ones you love, the ones you hurt the most Went as far as I can run but now I'm out of road I gotta let you know, but Heartbreak can wait 'Cause I'm too scared to let you go Yeah I know I gotta do this But I'm making up excuses Not to be alone

Love At First Fight 03:11

Met you in a bathroom line Dive bar on the lower east side You were looking at me Like you didn't wanna be just friends Two months and twenty-four days Toothbrush on the sink at my place Just a matter of time 'Til we got into an argument You never really know someone 'Til you see the other side of them Under the moonlight, clenching your jaw And that's when I saw the fire in your eyes Clothes on the floor, you stormed out the door And that's when I knew that I can't live without you It was sparks at first sight But it was love at first fight (at first fight) Flying down a flight of stairs Just hit me how much I care Even if that train ain't running I'll be running myself Two months and twenty-five days You bet that toothbrush is here to stay Cause I've never fought like this With anyone else We were under the moonlight, clenching your jaw And that's when I saw the fire in your eyes Clothes on the floor, you stormed out the door And that's when I knew that I can't live without you It was sparks at first sight But it was love at first fight (at first fight) You never really know someone 'Til you see the other side of them And I didn't know you were the one 'Til you and I were almost done Under the moonlight, clenching your jaw And that's when I saw the fire in your eyes Clothes on the floor, you stormed out the door And that's when I knew that I can't live without you It was sparks at first sight But it was love at first fight Under the moonlight

Got me in the palm of your hand Kind of love even gods don't understand A story they'll tell for ages Written in every language Got me in the palm of your hand Hope I always am Not a star in the sky that I wouldn't catch I would burn down the world if you wanted it Not a secret I wouldn't hide Not a song that I wouldn't write Not a part of my heart that I wouldn't share Baby, if you didn't know, now you know there's nothing I wouldn't do I can't say "No" to you It's the way that you look all the time It's a beautiful blur with you by my side A story they'll tell for ages Written in every language It's the way that you look all the time 'Til the day I die Not a star in the sky that I wouldn't catch I would burn down the world if you wanted it Not a secret I wouldn't hide Not a song that I wouldn't write Not a part of my heart that I wouldn't share Baby, if you didn't know, now you know there's nothing I wouldn't do I can't say "No" to you There's no way I could ever say "No" to you There's no way I could ever say "No" to you Not a star in the sky that I wouldn't catch I would burn down the world if you wanted it Not a secret I wouldn't hide Not a song that I wouldn't write Not a part of my heart that I wouldn't share Baby, if you didn't know, now you know there's nothing I wouldn't do I can't say "No" to you There's no way I could ever say "No" to you There's no way I could ever say "No" to you
