There are days when I wake up
I don't know what I'm doin' here
I barely recognize
The pair of eyes
Staring back at me in the mirror
But there was a day when I was free
Not a care that I could see
So good I barely could believe
That it was happenin
Oh take me back again

When I was 16 with an open heart
Windows down in a beat up car
When I was dumb
And the world was young and
She was beautiful
She was beautiful
She was beautiful

How do we end up like this?
Livin' lives that we don't care about?
Too busy fixin' things
On the computer screens
While the grass grows green
Me, I'm screaming out
There was a day that I was free
Not a care that could see
So good I barely could believe
That it was happenin'
Oh take me back again

Ooh... I was 16 with an open heart
Windows down in a beat up car
When I was dumb
And the wolrd was young and
She was beautiful
She was beautiful
She was beautiful
She was beautiful
She was beautiful
Yeah... yeah, yeah

There was a day when I was free
Not a care that I could see
So good I barely could believe
It was happenin'
Oh take me back again

When I was 16 with an open heart
Windows down in a beat up car
When I was dumb
And the world was young and
The world was young
She was beautiful
She was beautiful
It was you
It was you
And you were beautiful, yeah

When I was 16 with an open heart
Winsdows down in a beat up car
When I was dumb
And the world was young and
She was beautiful
Ooh oh oh
