  • Breathing deeply, walking backwards
    Finding strength to call and ask her
    Roller coaster, favorite ride
    Let me kiss you one last time

    Leave me standing here
    Act like I'm not around
    The coast will probably never clear
    Can I please go home now?

    I had that dream about you again
    Where I wait outside until you let me in
    And there I stay

    Lay beside me
    And listen at the wall
    We'll keep on lying
    Until the summer comes

    I had that dream about you again
    Where you drive my car
    Right off a fucking cliff

    And now I'm breathing deeply, walking backwards
    Finding strength to call and ask her
    Roller coaster, favorite ride
    Let me kiss you one last time

    Make me promise
    That I will never tell
    All I remember is
    The way her bedroom smelled

    I had that dream about you again
    Where I wait outside until you let me in

    And now I'm breathing deeply, walking backwards
    Finding strength to call and ask her
    Roller coaster, favorite ride
    Let me kiss you one last time
    Goodnight, goodnight Writer/s: Mark Hoppus, Tom DeLonge, Travis Barker
