i look back
Middle school just u and me
We were awkward yet carefree
We would call like all the time
Playing games until midnight
We would meet up at the park every weekend
You and I were well known as the school's best friends
We would go to every dance
Before we got caught in romance
You would always like a guy
I would always roll my eyes
And we didn't know this back then
That 5 years would fly so damn fast
Now we're growing up
And when everything gets to tough
Sometimes I look back
At all that we once had
At what we did and who we were
All that happened that we deserved
And when things get this bad
I look back
And now we're only moving on
Pages written, chapters gone
I can't even believe it
Still trying to get my permit
For now can we just be kids
Pretending we're still innocent
Now we're bout to be seniors
I swear I was an 8th grader
Few months and I'll walk the stage
A year and I'll leave the state
Can we just go get some food
Before we gave our bodies rules
Now we're growing up
And when everything gets to tough
Sometimes I look back
At all that we once had
At what we did and who we were
All that happened that we deserved
And when things get this bad
I look back
Sometimes I look back
At all that we once had
And who we met and how we changed
The things we let define our age
And when things get this bad
I look back
And when everything seems too big
I'll always simply reminisce
Rough times I look back
At all that we once had
At what we did and who we were
All that happened that we deserved
And when things get this bad
I look back
Sometimes I look back (Singing in a musical, Dance team, that was so simple)
At all that we once had (Drama class, but that's all gone, Looking back still growing fond)
And who we met and how we changed (Growing up and wasting time)
The things we let define our age (Months to years, they're flying by)
And when things get this bad (In a year we'll have to split, 12 more months of being kids)
I look back
Playing games until midnight
We would call like all the time
We were awkward yet carefree
Back then it was u and me
