(Yeah, yeah)
(Yeah, yeah)
(Yeah, yeah)
(Yeah)

It's that first day of first grade
That cute girl, your third date
That backpack, that snapback
You've had since the third grade
The first time you got laid
The worst time you got played
It hurt but you're okay
You learned from your mistakes
Your friends back in high school
We thought we were so cool
We'd steal Jack - my dad's stash
And drink the whole night through
The first time you first moved
Dad's new job, a new roof
New student made new friends
A new start, a new you

I guess things could be worse
Dad's in sales and my mom is a nurse
Yeah, family comes first
Remember all the good and forget about the worst
Yeah, some things will burn
And others will hurt, but you can make it work
Yeah, just flashback and be glad that you can look back
At a good past, happy that you have that
I like living in the past
It makes me thankful for everything I have
Yeah, every time that I laughed
It makes me grateful for the present and the past
Yeah, don't live life too fast
Take it all slowly and you can make it last
Yeah, keep all the friends that you had back in your math class
You'll be glad that you have 'em when you look back

(Yeah, yeah)
(Yeah, yeah)
(Yeah, yeah)
(Yeah)

(Yeah, yeah)
(Yeah, yeah)
(Yeah, yeah)
(Yeah) Yeah, yeah

It's that time that you got caught
You snuck out and forgot
Your parents were so mad
But, man, she was so hot
That time you got too drunk
The first time you blew chunks
It's okay, we all drank
Too much when we're too young
The first time you held hands
Your first time in romance
You thought you had no chance
But still asked her to dance
The time that you moved out
Your parents were so proud
And waving goodbye
They held back their tears back somehow

Let's go, all lives aren't the same
But we can work together and we can make a change
Yeah, this life is strange
Remember all the good while forgetting all the pain
Yeah, think back to a day
When you were so free just to run around and play
Yeah, you can have that day
Just let go, let your mind run away
Yeah, and Learn to be young
Have a little fun with your friends in the sun
'Cause in life you only got one
Give yourself a break, quit living on the run
And be where your feet are
Laying down at night just to stare up at the stars
And be proud of who you are
Wear your memories on your sleeve like a scar

(Yeah, yeah)
(Yeah, yeah)
(Yeah, yeah)
(Yeah)
