I was only 17
the summer that I learned
I don't know anything
in fact, I know nothing
but that's alright
because I've got time
I'm only pushing 23
and just as happy as can be
to be here tonight
to be here tonight
Late nights and goodbyes
We gazed at lost eyes
old friends and promises
nothing wrong with an open end
no time for hesitation
manifest our destination
I'm only lost because I'm home and wasted
I'm too alive to remain complacent
And I'm leaving with something to prove
because I've got nothing to lose
I was only 17
the summer that I learned
I don't know anything
in fact, I know nothing
but that's alright
because I've got time
I'm only pushing 23
and just as happy as can be
to be here tonight
I don't know who I am
or what I want
or who I want to be
but that's happiness to me
I'm slowly learning that
fulfillment doesn't comfort what I've done
or how far I've come
if destiny betrays us
I'll stay for what will save us
And I'm leaving with something to prove
because I've got nothing to lose
I was only 17
the summer that I learned
I don't know anything
in fact, I know nothing
but that's alright
because I've got time
I'm only pushing 23
and just as happy as can be
to be here tonight
