Max

Verse 1

Rain came down on a Friday night

Docs on pavement, city lights

Half-shaved hair, hoodie pulled low

Didn’t know my whole life was ‘bout to explode

Turned the corner, didn’t see the hole

Fell down hard, lost all control

Then suddenly somebody crashed in too

Black floppy hair and eyes midnight blue

We hit the ground, face to face

Heartbeat racing in the pouring rain

Accidental kiss, both froze still

Like the whole world skipped a beat for real

Pre-Chorus

He pulled me up, hands shaking bad

“Hey, stay awake,” yeah, he looked so sad

Strong arms holding me close that night

Bad boy smile but his heart was gold inside

Chorus

Oh Max, next door trouble in black boots

Football star with an attitude

Rich boy, fast car, breaking every rule

But he looks at me like I’m the whole moon

He saved me in the rain that night

Now he’s texting me past midnight

Says, “Girl, you’re different,” yeah, I can tell

Fell into a hole and straight into his spell

Verse 2

Next morning moving trucks roll in

Guess who walks out with that same grin?

Right next door like some movie scene

Too unreal to believe it happened to me

He knocks on my window late at night

Sneaks me snacks and drives with the headlights bright

Everybody whispers when he walks by

Captain of the team, got that dangerous vibe

But he’s sweet when nobody else can see

Carries my books, saves me a seat

Throws his jacket over my shoulders slow

Makes me feel safe when the world gets cold

Pre-Chorus

And every time he takes my hand

Feels like lightning running through my skin

Bad boy eyes but he treats me right

Like I’m the only girl in his whole life

Chorus

Oh Max, next door trouble in black boots

Football star with an attitude

Rich boy, fast car, breaking every rule

But he looks at me like I’m the whole moon

He saved me in the rain that night

Now he’s texting me past midnight

Says, “Girl, you’re different,” yeah, I can tell

Fell into a hole and straight into his spell

Bridge

Everybody says don’t fall too fast

But with him I don’t wanna hold back

Black hair falling over his eyes

And somehow he sees right through mine

He pulls me close under neon skies

Says, “You’re staying with me tonight”

Not forever, just side by side

Laughing while the whole town sleeps outside

(Final Chorus)

Oh Max, next door trouble in black boots

Strong enough to carry my bruises

Spoils me silly but it’s more than that

He makes my broken heartbeat dance

From one wrong step to a whole new life

Now I’m wearing his hoodie every night

Funny how one storm changed everything

Now the bad boy next door’s my everything
