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
