We were seventeen and invincible
Had the world figured out
And the girl on my shoulder told me,
"Everything's gon' be alright (woah-oh)
And everything was gonna be alright (woah-oh)"

Yea maybe we were in high school
But you never see the ending
When you're young and not pretending singin',
"Everything's gon' be alright (woah-oh)
And everything was gonna be alright"

Buried her deepest sigh
Stars don't clear my eyes

Now she's got a boyfriend
And I got it poppin'
There's nothing really happy
'Cause the way you spent
Yea she's in Ohio
And I'm on tobacco
Coming to this city and then who knows
With that song, she wrote,
"Wish that I could turn this car around"
But she's got a boyfriend now

And I took a trip out to L.A.
For the girl with a smile
That could take your breathe away I'm thinkin',
"Everything's gon' be alright (woah-oh)
And everything was gonna be alright (woah-oh)"

Maybe I thought I could sweep it
As she grew out her feet
And go right back to Boston thinkin',
"Everything's gon' be alright (woah-oh)
And everything was gonna be alright"

The streets keep holding on
But now she's so far gone

Now she's got a boyfriend
And I got it poppin'
There's nothing really happy
'Cause the way you spent
Yea she's on the west coast
And I'm on tobacco
Coming to this city and then who knows
With that song, she wrote,
"Wish that I could turn this car around"
But she's got a boyfriend now

[...........]

Twenty-three and invincible
Got the world figured out
And the burn on my shoulder told me,
"Everything's gon' be alright (woah-oh)
and that means everything gon' be alright"

Now she's got a boyfriend
and I got it poppin'
There's nothing really happy
'Cause the way you spent
Yea she's in Ohio
And I'm on tobacco
Coming to this city and then who knows
with that song, she wrote,
"Wish that I could turn this car around"
'Cause there she goes
I wish that I could press rewind somehow
But she's got a boyfriend now

'Cause she's got a boyfriend now
