Spent my last quarter on a new bike Downhill rode it fast to the seaside I felt the ocean wash over my hands Mom and dad had the very last big fight Two homes and now I gotta pick a side Took a moment but now I understand Maybe I've cried Maybe I've laughed And maybe it's sad It was the best year of my life Yeah I've been so mad I've been so reckless But when I look back It was the best year of my life I lost touch with some old friends We grew apart, guess it happens But I met people l'll never forget I broke hearts till they broke mine Made love in the moonlight I've done things I'll never regret Yes I've been a mess Been a fool And tears did fall But then again, at least I felt it all Maybe I've cried Maybe I've laughed And maybe it's sad It was the best year of my life Yeah, I've been so mad And I've been so reckless But when I look back It was the best year of my life
