Noah Kahan American Cars Lyrics

Lyrics from Live Debut

[Verse 1]
I was workin' on a plan to disappear completely
Gaslightin' my friends into thinkin' I was busy
'Cause if drinkin' was a day job, I'd be askin' for more money
Hell, I never take a day off, and I'm always sellin' somethin'

[Pre-Chorus]
Headlights, your plates, 4CB3A
Didn't know you drove American cars
Ray-Bans on your face, you've been drivin' all day
But you're here and we're so grateful you are

[Chorus]
'Cause you're gonna fix it, you're gonna patch it up
Honey, we're fragile, you've always been so tough
You know that I miss you, you always come runnin' back
Whenever I ask, whenever I ask

[Verse 2]
And I hate to drag you back here, but I think he's really lost it
He's been sittin' on the porch, oh, ranting like a prophet
And I can't stand the nights, yeah, that dinner time silence
I cut the tension with a knife, and I pray you started drivin'

[Pre-Chorus]
Headlights, your plates, 4CB3A Didn't know you drove American cars
Ray-Bans on your face, you've been drivin' all day
But you're here and we're so grateful you are

[Chorus]
'Cause you're gonna fix it, you're gonna patch it up
Honey, we're fragile, you've always were so tough
You know that I miss you, you always come runnin' back
Whenever I ask, whenever I ask

[Bridge]
Make it stop, make him talk, all I want is a dialogue
Oh, we're drownin' here, I've gotta stay for Mom
Make the house a home, you know how to talk
Well, you did back then, we would talk so much
And it's fine we don't, but can you come home?

[Chorus]
'Cause you gotta fix this, you gotta patch it up
Honey, we're fragile, you always were so tough
You know that I miss you, you always come runnin' back
Whenever I ask, whenever I ask

[Outro]
You know that I miss you, you always come runnin' back
Whenever I ask, whenever I ask
Oh, whenever I ask
Whenever I ask, whenever I ask
