Benny Blanco, Halsey & Khalid: Eastside

when i was young, i fell in love
we used to hold hands
man, that was enough
then we grew up
starting to watch
used to kiss underneath the light on the back of the bus
oh no, your daddy didn’t like me much
and he didn’t believe me when I said you were the one
oh, every day she found a way out of the window to sneak out late

she used to meet me on the Eastside
in the city where the sun don’t set
and every day you know that we ride
though the backstreets in a blue Corvette
baby, you know I just wanna leave tonight
we can go anywhere we want
drive down to the coast
jump in the seat
just take my hand and come with me

we can do anything if we put our minds to it
take your whole life then you put a line through it
my love is yours if you willing to take it
give me your heart cause I’m not gonna break it
so come on, starting today
start a new life, together in a different place
we know the love is how these ideas came to be
so baby, run away with me

17 and we got a dream to have a family
a house nad everything in between
and then, suddenly we turned 23
now we got pressure to taking our life more seriously
we got our dead-end jobs and got bills to pay
have old friends and know our enemies
now I am thinking back to when I was young
back to the day when I was falling in love

he used to meet me on the Eastside
in the city where the sun don’t set
and every day you know that we ride
though the backstreets in a blue Corvette
baby, you know I just wanna leave tonight
we can go anywhere we want
drive down to the coast
jump in the seat
just take my hand and come with me
singing

we can do anything if we put our minds to it
take your whole life then you put a line through it
my love is yours if you willing to take it
give me your heart cause I’m not gonna break it
so come on, starting today
start a new life, together in a different place
we know the love is how these ideas came to be
so baby, run away with me
