We were seventeen and invincible Had the world figured out and a girl on my shoulder Told me everything's gonna be alright And everything was gonna be alright Yeah, maybe we were in high school But you never see the ending When you're young and not pretending Singing "everything's gon' be alright" And everything was gonna be alright Buried her deep inside Stars, they'll kill my eyes Now she's got a boyfriend And I've got a rock band There's nothing really at it Cause the way it's been Yeah, she's in Ohio And I'm on some back road Driving to the city And then who knows? Cause that's how she rolls I wish that I could turn this car around She's got a boyfriend now Then I took a trip out to LA For the girl with the smile that could take your breath away I'm thinking everything's gon' be alright And everything was gonna be alright Maybe I thought I could sweep it And sweep her off her feet and go right back to Boston Thinking everything's gonna be alright And everything was gonna be alright These dreams keep holding on But now she's so far gone Now she's got a boyfriend And I've got a rock band There's nothing really at it Cause the way it's been Yeah, she's on the west coast And I'm on some back road Driving to the city And then who knows? Cause that's how she rolls I wish that I could turn this car around She's got a boyfriend now Take it back to you so Now with everything that I know Now it's so hard I tore us apart Taking back the feeling that the world Will just keep dealing me the right cards Now you're just so far And I'm 23 and invincible Got the world figured out And the bird on my shoulder Told me everything's gonna be alright And then is everything gonna be alright? Now she's got a boyfriend And I've got a rock band There's nothing really at it Cause the way it's been Yeah, she's in Ohio And I'm on some back road Driving to the city And then who knows? Cause that's how she rolls I wish that I could turn this car around Cause then she goes I wish that I could press rewind somehow She's got a boyfriend now
