Fifteen
You take a deep breath
and you walk through the doors,
it's the morning
of your very first day
You say hi to your friends
you ain't seen in a while,
try and stay out
of everybody's way
It's your freshman year
and you're gonne be here
for the next four years
in this town
Hoping one of those
senior boys will wink at you
and say you know I haven't
seen you around
Before...
'cause when you're
Fifteen and somebody
tells you they love you
You're gonna believe them
And when you're
Fifteen, feeling like there's
nothing to figure out
Well
Count to ten, take it in
This is life before you know
who you're gonna be
Fifteen
You sit in class next
to a redhead named
Abigail and soon enough
you're best friends
Laughing at the other girls
who think they're so cool,
we'll be out of here
as soon as we can
And then you're on
you very first date
and he's got a car and
you're feeling like flying
And your mama's waiting up
And you're thinking
he's the one and
you're dancing 'round your room
when the night ends
when the night ends
'cause when you're
Fifteen and somebody tells you they love you
You're gonna believe them
And when you're
Fifteen and your first kiss
makes your head spin 'round
But, in your life you'll do things
greater than
dating the boy on the footbal team
I didn't know it at fifteen
When all you wanted
was to be wanted,
wish you could go back
and tell yourself what you know now
Back then I swore I was
gonna marry him someday
But I realized some
bigger dreams of mine
And Abigail gave
everything she had
to a boy
who changed his mind
And we both cried
'cause when you're
Fifteen, and somebody
tells you they love you
you're gonne believe them
And when you're
Fifteen, don't forget
to look before you fall
I' ve found time can
heal most anything and
you just might find who
you're supposed to be
I didn't know who I
was supposed to be
At fifteen
Your very first date
take a deep breath girl
take a deep breath as you
walk through the doors
