| I know you wanna hurry through your homework
|
| Youth is a hungry beast
|
| I know you wanna rise in the west
|
| And set in the east
|
| You’re a planet and you’re being born
|
| Your heart explodes in love and then its torn
|
| One day you’ll try to make it back
|
| When you’re older and you’re restless and you miss the past
|
| But for today just feel your feelings and hang out with your friends
|
| Because it’s never gonna feel this way again
|
| You probably won’t marry this one
|
| Though she feels like your forever girl
|
| Somehow you’ll save the best for the last
|
| Even as you’re saving the world
|
| You’re a hero-heroine of destiny
|
| And I would hand you the keys if it were up to me
|
| One day you’ll try to make it back…
|
| The music’s loud the band is tight
|
| Your heart’s in your throat 'cause it’s homecoming night
|
| You dress up just enough to look dressed down
|
| Look in the mirror you’re the mayor of this town
|
| For everyone who put you down
|
| We’re the ones who love you as you are
|
| Walk it loud like you’re fluid and proud
|
| You got permission to use the car
|
| Tonight you got your playlists cranked
|
| And the feeling is better than any one you’ve ever had
|
| One day you’ll try to make it back
|
| When you’re older and you’re restless and you miss the past
|
| But for today just feel your feelings and hang out with your friends
|
| Because it’s never gonna feel this way again |
