lyrics

Old Lyme was a funny kind of place
We ran right into our teens like some drunk delinquent race
Pasttimes were backseats and night trips to Hawk's Beach
We didn't want it any other way

Now I know not to drive at night with my lights off
Or park in Connecticut with a girl drunk on popov
You'll get lost just off the highway in the middle of nowhere
Ignoring calls from friends worried about where you are so I swear...

Hammonasset I won't see you again
You're buried in the past like all my old best friends
We grew up too fast and barely had a chance
To know what it's like to wait for the weekend

Nothing good happens after 3am
but it was the rush of getting caught that made us drive up again
With our morals in the trash and Irish in my glass
We never thought that it would end.

Now I know not to drive at night with my lights off
Or park in Connecticut with a girl drunk on popov
You'll get lost just off the highway in the middle of nowhere
Ignoring calls from friends worried about where you are so I swear...

Hammonasset I won't see you again
You're buried in the past like all my old best friends
We grew up too fast and barely had a chance
To know what it's like to wait for the weekend

I'll never go home
I'll never go home
I'll never go

Now I know not to drive at night with my lights off
Or park in Connecticut with a girl drunk on popov
You'll get lost just off the highway in the middle of nowhere
Ignoring calls from friends worried about where you are so I swear...

Hammonasset I won't see you again
You're buried in the past like all my old best friends
We grew up too fast and barely had a chance
To know what it's like to wait for the weekend
