[Intro]
(Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah)
[Verse 1]
Yeah, it's that first day of first grade (Yeah)
That cute girl, your third date (Yeah)
That backpack, that snapback (Yeah)
You've had since the third grade (Yeah)
The first time you got laid (Yeah)
The worst time you got played (Yeah)
It hurt, but you're okay (Yeah)
You learned from your mistakes (Yeah)
Your friends back in high school (Yeah)
We thought we were so cool (Yeah)
We'd steal Jack - my dad's stash (Yeah)
And drink the whole night through (Yeah)
The first time you first moved (Yeah)
Dad's new job, a new roof (Yeah)
New student made new friends (Yeah)
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 (Look back, look back)

(Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah)
[Bridge]
(Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah)
[Verse 3]
Yeah, it's that time that you got caught (Yeah)
You snuck out and forgot (Yeah)
Your parents were so mad (Yeah)
But, man, she was so hot (Yeah)
That time you got too drunk (Yeah)
The first time you blew chunks (Yeah)
It's okay, we all drank (Yeah)
Too much when we're too young (Yeah)
The first time you held hands (Yeah)
Your first time in romance (Yeah)
You thought you had no chance (Yeah)
But still asked her to dance (Yeah)
The time that you moved out (Yeah)
Your parents were so proud (Yeah)
And waving goodbye (Yeah)
They held back their tears somehow (Yeah)
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
