Drivers License
Olivia Rodrigo · 2021
🎤 Sing along
Sing with the chorus
- Yeah, today I drove through the suburbs
- 'Cause how could I ever love someone else?
- And I know we weren't perfect
- But I've never felt this way for no one
Sing it again — final chorus
- Yeah, today I drove through the suburbs
- And pictured I was driving home to you
- And I know we weren't perfect
- But I've never felt this way for no one, oh
