I remember when the only thing that mattered was friends
Six streets,
six speeds,
and Katie had a crush on Ben
We'd stare up at the sky and pretend that
the summer after 17 was never gonna end
But dreams get big and circles get smaller
Some count kids and others count dollars
I just wished that none of that mattered
Cause some lose grip while climbing that ladder
Hey kid,
you're gonna go far,
you're gonna hit big But break a couple hearts,
you wanna wake up With everything you need,
but when you win some,
you lose somebody
Hey kid,
you're gonna be fine,
you're gonna take off But got a couple ties
that's gonna pay off But nothing's ever free,
cause when you win some,
you lose somebody
I remember how we never thought we'd figure it out
Writing stupid lyrics in the basement of my parents' house
And look at where we're singing them now
But the faces got a little less familiar in
the crowd Cause life goes on and changes like seasons
Some find God and others fight demons I
just wished that none of that mattered
But there's no way to stop and go backwards Hey kid,
you're gonna go far,
you're gonna
hit big But break a couple hearts,
you wanna wake
up With everything you need, but when you win
some,
you lose somebody Hey kid,
you're gonna be fine,
you're gonna
take off But got a couple ties that's gonna pay off
But nothing's ever free,
cause when you win some,
you lose somebody
Some doors close and others slam open
Some lose faith and others keep hoping
And that young gun who lived for this moment
Well I just wish that someone had told him
Hey kid,
you're gonna go far,
you're gonna hit big But leave a couple scars,
you wanna wake up
With everything you need,
but when you win some,
you lose somebody
Hey kid,
you're gonna be fine,
you're gonna take off But got a couple ties that's gonna pay off
But nothing's ever free,
cause when you win some,
you lose somebody
