Backseat Rider

Lyrics

You lived down the block
 We met for the first time at the bus stop
 We sat side by side
 Third seat from the back, we talked the whole ride
 Six years later you bought your first car
 And you told me to wait outside
 Then you pulled up and somebody else
 Was sitting in the passenger's side
 So I sat in the backseat, it didn't bother me
 But after five weeks of sitting in silence behind her
 While you talked of movies I've never seen
 I realized that's how we used to be
 But now my best friend is the driver
 And I'm the backseat rider
 Maybe it's my fault
 Spent summer break away and forgot to call
 Or maybe you forgot
 Around this time last summer, we sat in the parking lot
 And you told me when you got your first car
 That you and I would go for a drive
 But now we're here and somebody else
 Is sitting in the passenger's side
 So I sat in the backseat, it didn't bother me
 But after five weeks of sittin' in silence behind her
 While you talked of movies I've never seen
 I realized that's how we used to be
 But now my best friend is the driver
 And I'm the backseat rider
 I gave you back the clothes that you used to borrow
 You dropped me off at home, said you'll see me tomorrow
 And I sit in the backseat, it didn't bother me
 But after five weeks of sitting in silence behind her
 While you talked of movies I've never seen
 I realized that's how we used to be
 But now my best friend is the driver
 And I'm the backseat rider
 I gave you back the clothes that you used to borrow
 You dropped me off at home, said you'll see me tomorrow
