Wild and Free

Verse

Sunrise to sunset, tired and worn.

Wild as hell, that's a fact,

Wat a wild summer, no turning back.

Skateboard tricks on the cracked concrete,

Sneakin' out late, feelin' the beat

Of a world that was ours, just for a while,

A permanent summer, a permanent smile.

Chorus

Oh-oh-oh, we were young and we were wild,

And we laughed till we cried at every stupid joke.

Cruisin' Main Street in a beat-up car,

Chasin' every pretty girl like a shootin' star.

Remember those nights, when the world stood still?

King and Queen of a suburban hill.

Yeah, we made the best of what we had,

Crazy, wild, and maybe a little bad.

Verse

Summer heat haze, walkin' to the pool,

Passin' notes in the back of homeroom school.

First kiss behind the bleachers, scared to death,

Holding our breath with every single breath.

The Friday night lights, the rumble and roar,

Dreamin' of a future behind every door.

We thought it would last, this perfect phase,

Lost in a teenage, beautiful haze.

Chorus

Oh-oh-oh, we were young and we were wild ,

And we laughed till we cried at every stupid joke.

Cruisin' Main Street in a beat-up car,

Chasin' every pretty girl like a shootin' star.

Remember those nights, when the world stood still?

King and Queen of a suburban hill.

Yeah, we made the best of what we had,

Crazy, wild, and maybe a little bad.

Bridge

Then the caps and gowns, the pictures and tears,

A final farewell to all those years.

"See you later" was the easy thing to say,

But "goodbye forever" was a different kind of day.

Different directions, different lives to chase,

A bittersweet memory we could never replace.

Outro

Now I'm older, with a different kind of view,

I wonder sometimes, what if I knew?

If I took that other road, made that other choice,

Would my heart still sing with the same old voice?

The money's all different, the friends are all new,

But I still think of me and my old crew.

Yeah, I wonder sometimes...

If I could do it all again, what would I do
