DWLLRS - Nights That We Needed (Lyrics)

In "Nights That We Needed" by DWLLRS, the song reflects on the longing for past memories shared with friends during late-night adventures. It’s about those unplanned, emotionally charged nights that helped carry them through tough times. The lyrics explore the complexity of growing up, where friendships evolve, life gets heavier, and moments that once felt endless become fleeting memories. At its core, the song highlights how connection and vulnerability often come in the quietest, most unexpected moments—driving with no destination, sitting in driveways, or singing along to favorite songs. It’s a reflection on how those nights, filled with raw emotion and shared struggles, left a lasting impact. It’s a sentimental reminder that even as life changes, the comfort found in those shared experiences remains something deeply needed. It was released on December 6, 2024.

• DWLLRS - Nights That We Needed (Lyrics)

[Verse 1]
I swear I saw you just last week
You said it's been a year I think
Where did all the days go in between
I'm scared of getting older now
It's hard to see what's fading out
But John skips all the parties to tuck his kid in

[Pre-Chorus]
What's the meaning of these struggles?
Why am I alone again?
My buddies told me to shut up
And just drink my beer instead
I can't help but think of dying
And if it's just us at the end
Then we're all alone together
That's the meaning of a friend

[Chorus]
I miss the old days when our friends
Would drive around with no reason
Talking about how she left me
Those werе the nights that I needed
We sang thosе songs on the highway
We sat too long in the driveway
Talking about how she left me
Those were the nights that I needed

[Verse 2]
Lord knows that I've been weak
I stay up late to cry and sing
Where did all the days go in between?

[Pre-Chorus]
What's the meaning of these struggles?
Why am I alone again?
My buddies told me to shut up
And just drink my beer instead
I can't help but think of dying
And if it's just us at the end
Then we're all alone together
That's the meaning of a friend

[Chorus]
I miss the old days when our friends
Would drive around with no reason
Talking about how she left me
Those were the nights that I needed
We sang those songs on the highway
We sat too long in the driveway
Talking about how she left me
Those were the nights that I needed

[Post-Chorus]
Oh, oh
Oh, oh (Those were the nights that I needed)
Oh, oh
Oh, oh (Those were the nights that I needed)

[Outro]
I just wanna be sixteen again, with my old friends
Taking pictures for the moments that I'll forget
Fall in love looking up but we always— (Those were the nights that I needed)
I just wanna be eighteen again, when high school ends
All the girls that still hate me but say we're friends
Spend every night with the boys before were men (Those were the nights that I needed)
I just wanna be nineteen again, still stuck in bed
Skipping class writing songs 'cause it helps my head
Now I only see my ex on the internet (Those were the nights that I needed)
I just wanna be twenty again
With you instead, hope it never ends
Hope it never ends
