Lyrics

[Intro]
Mhm
Ooh, Yeah

[Verse]
You're brushing out the traces of the long day
Asking why you still look beautiful at all
You always second-guess the light (that's shining in you)
If only you could see the way I do when it falls

[Chorus]
I see your old jean jacket in the backseat window
Golden afternoon with your hand in mine though
Wait, darlin', don't turn, stay just like this
A worn-out blanket by a weathered fence
That summer breeze made every heartbeat make sense
Yeah, yeah, to me
You don't look a day past today or tomorrow
That lakeside evening, first kiss, eyes closed
Oh-oh

[Verse]
Yeah, laugh and roll your eyes like you're not buying any of it
I'll stay here awhile and let the memories fit
I'm on that winding lane, (can't you see?)
[Harmony]
(Headed there to steal your heart)
You're waiting by the screen door smiling back at me
Just like the start

[Chorus]
I see your old jean jacket in the backseat window
Golden afternoon with your hand in mine though
Wait, darlin', don't turn, stay just like this
A worn-out blanket by a weathered fence
That summer breeze made every heartbeat make sense
Yeah, yeah, to me
You don't look a day past today or tomorrow
That lakeside evening, first kiss, eyes closed
Oh-oh

[Chorus]
I see your old jean jacket in the backseat window
Golden afternoon with your hand in mine though
You don't look a day past wild dreams and backroads
That lakeside evening first kiss eyes closed

[Outro]
I see your old jean jacket in the backseat window
Golden afternoon with your hand in mine though
You don't look a day past wild dreams and backroads
That lakeside evening first kiss eyes closed
I see your old jean jacket in the backseat window
Golden afternoon with your hand in mine though
Jacket in the backseat window
You're brushing out the traces of the long day
