Front Seat Fairytale

Verse

Mama says I’m too young to be

Crying over boys with trucks and sleeves

But you said my name like it was gold

In that parking lot after the football show

Your hoodie still smells like gasoline

And peppermint and summer dreams

I swore when you let me wear your hat

I’d never give your heart back

Pre-chorus

You draw little hearts in the fog on the glass

Say “forever” like it’s something that lasts

Chorus

We’re just kids in a front seat fairytale

Windows down, singing loud, leaving glitter in your Chevrolet

You say I’m your girl and I halfway believe it

Pinkie promise but I overthink it

If loving you is dumb, I don’t wanna be smart

I wrote your last name on my notebook heart

It’s messy and dramatic but I don’t even care

We’re just kids in a front seat fairytale

Verse

You get jealous when I talk to Jake

But you don’t see the way girls look your way

I act tough but I’m terrified

You’ll wake up and change your mind

You say I’m pretty without makeup on

I replay it when you’re gone

I count the freckles on your face

Like they’re stars I get to claim

Pre-chorus

You kiss my cheek and the whole world stops

Like we’re in one of those TikTok love songs

Chorus

We’re just kids in a front seat fairytale

Windows down, singing loud, leaving glitter in your Chevrolet

You say I’m your girl and I halfway believe it

Pinkie promise but I overthink it

If loving you is dumb, I don’t wanna be smart

I wrote your last name on my notebook heart

It’s messy and dramatic but I don’t even care

We’re just kids in a front seat fairytale

Bridge

Maybe one day we’ll laugh at this

At how we thought our first kiss

Was the biggest thing the world had seen

But right now it’s everything to me

Don’t grow up too fast, don’t say goodbye

Just stay seventeen in my mind

Chorus

We’re just kids in a front seat fairytale

Head on your shoulder, tracing constellations in the air

If it falls apart I’ll still replay it

Every “I love you” you ever said

‘Cause even if we don’t make it far

You’ll always be my first young heart

It’s messy and dramatic but I swear

We were magic in that front seat fairytale
