Fifteen

You take a deep breath and you walk through the doors

It's the morning of your very first day

you say hi to your friends you ain't seen in a while

Try and stay out of everybodys way

it's your freshman year and youre gonna be here

for the next four years in this town

hoping one of those senior boys will wink at you and say

you know I haven't seen you around, before

Cause when you're fifteen

and somebody tells you they love you

you're gonna believe them

and when you're fifteen

feeling like there's nothing to figure out

well count to ten, take it in

this is life before you know who you're gonna be fifteen

You sit in class next to a redhead named Abigail

and soon enough your best friends

laughing at the other girls who think they're so cool

well be out of here as soon as we can

and then you're on your very first date and he got a car

and you're feeling like flying

and your mama is waiting up and you think he is the one

and you're dancing round your room when the night end

when the night ends

Cause when you're fifteen

and somebody tell you they love you

youre gonna believe them

when you're fifteen and your first kiss

makes your head spin round but

in your life you'll do things greater than

dating the boy on the football team

but I didn't know it at fifteen

When all you wanted was to be wanted

wish you could go back and tell yourself what you know now

Back then I swore I was gonna marry him someday

but I realized some bigger dreams of mine

and Abigail gave everything she had to a boy

who changed his mind and we both cried

Cause when you're fifteen

and somebody tells you they love you

you're gonna believe them

and when you're fifteen,

don't forget to look before you fall

I've found that time can heal most anything

and you just might find who you're supposed to be

I didnt know who I was supposed to be at fifteen

Your very first day

take a deep breath girl

take a deep breath as you walk through those doors.
