Lyrics

One day I will wake up in a dream
And the meaning of it all will be revealed to me
Suddenly, I'm 17
Driving alone for the first time
Smoking cigarettes, they can't kill me yet
Riding away from the sunrise
Winding my way down the back roads

The older I get, the less I know
And I knew nothin' then
The older I get, the less I know
And I knew nothin' then

Nostalgia's never quite as it seems
Rose-coloured glasses on everything
Sparkle like a diamond ring
I'm so sick of playing pretend
Thinking everything was better back then
It's hard to remember the bad parts
I thought that I knew it all

The older I get, the less I know
And I knew nothin' then
The older I get, the less I know
And I knew nothin' then
The older I get, the less I know

Oh-oh-oh-oh, I get caught up in the romance
I get caught up
Thinking you and I could've been
Yeah, I get caught up

Oh-oh-oh, one day I will wake up from the dream
And the meaning of it all will be revealed to me
