Can't help wondering what you're thinking 00:01

Wherever you are 00:07

Late night movies care less drinking 00:13

To cover these scars 00:21

And as much as I wanna be with you 00:26

I know 00:31

You and me we're bumper cars 00:36

The more I try to get to you 00:40

The more we crash apart 00:43

No 00:47

Round and round we chase the sparks 00:49

But all that seems to lead to 00:53

It's a pile of broken parts 00:56

We're bumper cars 01:01

Bumper cars 01:04

The more I try to get to you 01:06

The more we crash apart 01:09

Good intentions, all these questions 01:15

We're sitting alone 01:22

All roads since you 01:28

Are wrong directions 01:31

I'll never give hope 01:35

And it's making me wanna be with you 01:41

I know 01:46

You and me we're bumper cars 01:51

The more I try to get to you 01:54

The more we crash apart 01:58

No 02:02

Round and round we chase the sparks 02:04

But all that seems to lead to 02:08

It's a pile of broken parts 02:11

We're bumper cars 02:15

Bumper cars 02:19

The more I try to get to you 02:21

The more we crash apart 02:24

Oh 02:28

This was supposed to be fun 02:30

This was supposed to be the one 02:33

Maybe we stayed too long 02:36

Maybe we played all wrong 02:39

This was supposed to be good 02:43

But I know, I know 02:46

02:50

You and me we're bumper cars 02:56

The more I try to get to you 03:00

The more we crash apart 03:03

No 03:07

Round and round we chase the sparks 03:09

But all that seems to lead to 03:12

It's a pile of broken parts 03:15

We're bumper cars 03:20

Bumper cars 03:24

The more I try to get to you 03:26

The more we crash apart 03:29

We're bumper cars 03:33

Lyrics:

[English]

Can't help wondering what you're thinking

Wherever you are

Late night movies care less drinking

To cover these scars

And as much as I wanna be with you

I know

You and me we're bumper cars

The more I try to get to you

The more we crash apart

Round and round we chase the sparks

But all that seems to lead to

It's a pile of broken parts

We're bumper cars

Bumper cars

The more I try to get to you

The more we crash apart

Good intentions, all these questions

We're sitting alone

All roads since you

Are wrong directions

I'll never give hope

And it's making me wanna be with you

I know

You and me we're bumper cars

The more I try to get to you

The more we crash apart

Round and round we chase the sparks

But all that seems to lead to

It's a pile of broken parts

We're bumper cars

Bumper cars

The more I try to get to you

The more we crash apart

This was supposed to be fun

This was supposed to be the one

Maybe we stayed too long

Maybe we played all wrong

This was supposed to be good

But I know, I know

...

You and me we're bumper cars

The more I try to get to you

The more we crash apart

Round and round we chase the sparks

But all that seems to lead to

It's a pile of broken parts

We're bumper cars

Bumper cars

The more I try to get to you

The more we crash apart

We're bumper cars

Bumper cars

The more I try to get to you

The more we crash apart

...
