SIXTEEN

There’s no better feeling than laughing ‘til everything seems okay 
Or watching the sunset with your best friends while your worries drift away 
Kissing' underneath the streetlights 
Those carefree summer nights 
And music blasting on the radio

Won’t know these were the best times of my life until they’re gone
Won’t know how much times flown by till I’m far from home
Won’t know how much I’ll miss these days till they’re out of reach
Oh lord I’d give anything
To stay sixteen

There’s nothing greater than driving your first time out on the highway
Or any problem being solved over ice cream on a warm summer day
How bout endless small town parties
Teenage boys who can’t say sorry
Staying up too late thinking about who we could be

Won’t know these were the best times of my life until they’re gone
Won’t know how much times flown by till I’m far from home
Won’t know how much I’ll miss these days till they’re out of reach
Oh lord I’d give anything
To stay sixteen

It’s impossible to know how many great nights I have left
But from now on I’ll cherish every moment that I get
And when I got a baby on the way or I’m old and gray
I’ll look back on this and say

Didn’t know those were the best times of my life until they’d gone
Didn’t know how much time flew by till I came back home
Didn’t know how much I’d miss those days till they were out of reach
Oh lord I’d give anything
To be sixteen
Ohhhhh to be sixteen
To be sixteen

HEY GIRL 
Started off just like you had planned 
A gentleman just holding your hand 
Talking on the phone for hours 
Soon his kisses turn into good-byes 
And his promises just flat out lies 
This isn’t the fairy tale ending you’ve been dreaming of 

You should have known he was too good to be true 
When he couldn’t keep his hands off of you 
It was over before it’d begun 
Couldn’t fix the damage he’d done 

Hey girl 
This is only your first heart break 
This is only your first mistake 
Give it time the pain will fade 

Hey girl 
You’ve only got one lifetime 
Don’t waste it on the wrong guy 
No need to compromise 

Why do you act so surprised? 
He disappeared right before your eyes 
But you were too in love to care 
Soon you’ll be good as gone 
He’ll be back to try and prove you wrong 
Please remember what he’s done 

You should have known he was too good to be true 
When he promised he’d never hurt you 
YOU had your chance to turn and run 
Now you can’t fix the damage he’s done 

Hey girl 
This is only your first heat break 
This is only your first mistake 
Give it time the pain ‘ll fade 

Hey girl 
You’ve only got one lifetime 
Don’t waste it on the wrong guy 
No need to compromise 

Now you’re cryin’ in your mama’s arms 
Screamin’ why is it so hard 
That the boy that you used to know is gone 
She says now that you know the truth 
You can say hey forget you 
Because there’s no point in hanging on 

Hey girl 
This won’t be your last heart break 
This won’t be your last mistake 
Give it time the pain ‘ll fade 

Hey girl 
You’ve only got one lifetime 
Keep waiting for that right guy 
No need to sacrifice 

Hey girl 
You only got one life time 
Keep waiting for that right guy

I’M NOT SORRY 

You broke my trust more than once or twice 
Do you expect me to play nice 
I’ve got better things to do 
I’m on my own and I’m lovin’ it 
When will you see that being without you has set me free 

I can’t put up with you 
I can’t handle this 
Just let me be 
I can’t breathe 

I’m not sorry 
I’m better off alone 
Stop callin’ 
You think I need you but I don’t 
Your sweet words can’t fool me anymore 

I’m not sorry 
You can’t break down my walls 
Don’t call me 
I don’t need you at all 
I’ve already locked up that door 

Bottom line is, I don’t need you anymore 
You’ve hurt me enough 
Keep playin’ your silly games 
But don’t act surprised if your world goes up in flames 

I can’t put up with you 
I can’t handle this 
Just let me be 
I can’t breathe 

I’m not sorry 
I’m better off alone 
Stop callin’ 
You think I need you but I don’t 
Your sweet words can’t fool me anymore 

I’m not sorry 
You can’t break down my walls 
Don’t call me 
I don’t need you at all 
I’ve already locked up that door 

I can’t listen to you run your mouth anymore 
Need I remind you of when I walked out that door 
Do you think you have power over me 
I’ll show you how crazy I can be 

I’m not sorry 
I’m better off alone 
Stop callin’ 
You think I need you but I don’t 
Your sweet words can’t fool me anymore 

I’m not sorry 
You can’t break down my walls 
Don’t call me 
I don’t need you at all 
I’ve already locked up that door 

I’m not sorry 
Stop callin’ 
I’ve already locked yo that door

IT HURTS 

He gambled with God for far too long 
And we knew this time he wouldn’t win 
His smile could brighten the darkest of rooms 
But quickly that smile was gone 

Pa, are you in there? Can you hear me? 
‘Cause I’m here missin’ you 
And I don’t know what I’ll do without you here beside me 
‘Cause I’m right here lovin’ you 

It Hurts, no I can’t move on 
It Hurts, my heart’s turned to stone 
And it hurts, but the damage is done since you're gone
And it hurts 

Right before my eyes, the strongest man I ever knew was crumblin’ to nearly nothin’ 
All I could do was hold his hand and pray 
Cause he heard angels singin’ his name 

Pa, are you in there? Can you hear me? 
Cause I’m here missin’ you 
And I don’t know what I’ll do without you here beside 
‘Cause I’m right here prayin’ for you 

It Hurts, no I can’t move on  
It Hurts, my heart’s turned to stone  
And it hurts, but the damage is done since you're gone 
And it hurts 

You brought love into our lives for all of your years 
But you left us broken in pieces 
None of us knew we’d lose you so soon 
No I can’t believe- we’re livin’ life without you 

It Hurts, no I can’t move on  
It Hurts, my heart’s turned to stone  
And it hurts, but the damage is done since you're gone 
And it hurts

Forever Like This

Let’s drive up the coast together - just you and me 
Livin’ in the moment- chasing the wind and feeling free 
Don’t cha know .. there’s nothing ahead but open road 

Let’s leave the world behind us and never look back 
Like two rebels on the run in my daddy’s Cadallac 
Can’t cha see...we’re about to make sweet memories 

Can we stay like this forever 
With our hearts beatin’ in overdrive 
Flying down the highway 
Love shinnin’ in your eyes- I feel so alive 
My only wish... is we stay forever like this 

Cranking up the radio and singing our favorite songs 
Who would’ve known we’ve been driving all night long 
Don’t cha know .. we’re moving so fast - we ain’t takin’ it slow 

Let’s hold on to each other into the morning light   
Watchin’ the sun rise in each other’s eyes   
Don’t cha see... forever is waiting for you and me 

Can we stay like this forever  
With our hearts beatin’ in overdrive  
Flying down the highway  
Love shinnin’ in your eyes- I feel so alive  
My only wish... is we stay forever like this 

One love - One life 
Just you and I driving into the night 
Time flies when you’re young and breaking free. 
My only wish... is we stay forever like this 

Can we stay like this forever  
With our hearts beatin’ in overdrive  
Flying down the highway  
Love shinnin’ in your eyes- I feel so alive  
My only wish... is we stay forever like this
