[Verse 1]
It's half past when I pick you up
You say I'm early so I wait in the front
Headlights in the pitch black
Good hearts in the far back
I remember we were blurring the glass
Hot breath as the time passed
Slow, well you were flipping through the radio
Singing don't stop, don't stop
[Pre-Chorus]
Go where we won't think about it
[Chorus]
Pretty girls on the stairs with their hopes up
Making noisy dreams
Sneaking smiles with the boys on the rooftops
It's a pretty thing, it's a pretty thing
Fifty hands in the air but it's all wrong
When their hearts all sink
I feel lowest on the top floor maybe
It's a pretty thing, it's a pretty thing
[Verse 2]
You trace lines on my winter thighs
You make me nervous so you're flashin' a smile
You say this is what friends do
I'm all dolled up for you
There's a letter on the top of my dash
It reads "Jones, you're a real catch"
Well, I was hoping it would work out like that
But it's a damn bust, let's just
[Pre-Chorus]
Go where we don't think about it
[Chorus]
Pretty girls on the stairs with their hopes up
Making noisy dreams
Sneaking smiles with the boys on the rooftops
It's a pretty thing, it's a pretty thing
Fifty hands in the air but it's all wrong
When their hearts all sink
I feel lowest on the top floor maybe
It's a pretty thing, it's a pretty thing
[Bridge]
How could we not not think about it (x3)
Let's go where we won't think about it
[Chorus]
Pretty girls on the stairs with their hopes up
Making noisy dreams
Sneaking smiles with the boys on the rooftops
It's a pretty thing, it's a pretty thing
Fifty hands in the air but it's all wrong
When their hearts all sink
I feel lowest on the top floor maybe
It's a pretty thing, it's a pretty thing1
