Lyrics:

                                                  
Till the Streetlights Came On
(Erica Ellis/Bret Bingham)
Lyrics and melody are our; demo done in Suno



(Verse 1)
Those summer nights when I was nine
Momma’d kick me out after suppertime
I’d run off, in case she changed her mind
Down the road, toward the laid-down bikes
 
Everybody knew everybody’s name
We weren’t worried about anything
Felt so sure that would never change
That’s a feeling I still chase
 
(Chorus)
We stayed out till the streetlights came on 
No rules, no doubts, until the sun was gone
Played hide and seek with the kids next door
Yeah, we never wanted nothing more
What I wouldn’t give to feel that olly olly oxen free again
Like I did back then… when we all belonged
And we stayed out till the streetlights came on
 
(Verse 2)
Gotta good life, still have good friends
But life ain’t always easy for a bill-paying man
Some days when the walls close in
I miss those nights and how I felt back then (when)

(Chorus)
We stayed out till the streetlights came on 
No rules, no doubts, until the sun was gone
Played hide and seek with the kids next door
Yeah, we never wanted nothing more
What I wouldn’t give to feel that olly olly oxen free again
Like I did back then… when we all belonged
And we stayed out till the streetlights came on

(Bridge)
If we had known that we couldn’t keep it
Woulda breathed that honeysuckle deeper

(Chorus)
We stayed out till the streetlights came on 
No rules, no doubts, until the sun was gone
Played hide and seek with the kids next door
Yeah, we never wanted nothing more
What I wouldn’t give to feel that olly olly oxen free again
Like I did back then… when we all belonged
And we stayed out till the streetlights came on
