18

Funny how a dream looks different through
A little cigarette smoke and a backseat view
Of a roadside mile marker reminding me
That broken van wasn't part of the dream
But I can't ask for more
Cause I got what I asked for

(chorus)
When I was 18
Somewhere stuck between naive
But not enough to see
Real as it gets is an airport goodbye
Baby don't forget me kiss you can't find in a wedding hall
God never heard my heart on my sleeve
In a church like he heard it ring through them hospital walls
Don't say I'm losing my mind
Causе I'll be the first to agree
Clock's saying something bout timе but I won't leave
18 catch back up to me

Crazy how somebody nobody knows
Can draw a line that you'll walk like you're wrong if you don't
Outcast labeled as nothing but lost
Standing his ground outside of the box
But I can't ask for more
Cause I got what I asked for

(chorus)
When I was 18
Somewhere stuck between naive
But not enough to see
Real as it gets is an airport goodbye
Baby don't forget me kiss you can't find in a wedding hall
God never heard my heart on my sleeve
In a church like he heard it ring through them hospital walls
Don't say I'm losing my mind
Cause I'll be the first to agree
Clock's saying something bout time but I won't leave
18 catch back up to me

18
Somewhere stuck between naive
But not enough to see
Real as it gets is an airport goodbye
Baby don't forget me kiss you can't find in a wedding hall
God never heard my heart on my sleeve
In a church like he heard it ring through them hospital walls
Don't say I'm losing my mind
Cause it's too damn hard to disagree
Clock's saying something bout time but I still sing
18 catch back up to me

Yeah 18
That's where I wanna be
