Ooh, ooh, oo-ooh
Ooh, ooh, oo-ooh, yeah
If I could talk to me
When I was seventeen
I'd tell myself to tap the brakes and lose that fake ID
Don't be too quick to run
Don't rip out all your roots
You're gonna need 'em for the places that you're headed to
You'll look around when you get to where you're going (to where you're going)
You'll figure out that you probably should have made it last
On down the road you'll know that gettin' there was golden (gettin'there was golden)
Don't wish away the days you don't back (don't get back)
Don't wish away the days you don't back (don't get back)
Ooh, ooh, ooh ooh, yeah
Those month-to-month apartments
Those rough and ramen years
Don't let the wild and crazy never grow up, disappear
And when those babies come and knock and wake you up at two
One day you'll miss the cries and how they climb in bed with you
You'll look around when you get to where you're going (to where you're going)
You'll figure out that you probably should have made it last
On down the road you'll know that gettin' there was golden (gettin'there was golden)
Don't wish away the days you don't back (don't get back)
Don't wish away the days you don't back (don't get back)
Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh
Days fly by
It's true what they say
So hold on tight
Before it's too late
Days fly by
It's true what they say
So hold on tight
Before it's too late
You'll look around when you get to where you're going (to where you're going)
You'll figure out that you probably should have made it last
On down the road you'll know that gettin' there was golden (gettin'there was golden)
Don't wish away the days you don't back (don't get back)
Don't wish away the days you don't back (don't get back)
Remember being young
Wishing for twenty-one
Sleeping away the summers
And now those days are done
