You take a deep breath and you walk through the doors
It's the morning of your very first day
You say "hi" to your friends you ain't seen in a while
Try and stay out of everybody's way
It's your freshman year and you're gonna be here
for the next four years in this town
Hoping one of those senior boys will wink at you and say
You know i haven't seen you around, before
Cause when you're fifteen and
Somebody tells you they love you
You're gonna believe them
And when you're fifteen
Feeling like
There's nothing to figure out
Well count to ten take it in
This is life before you know
Who you're gonna be fifteen
You sit in class next to a readhead named Abigail
And soon enough you're best friend
Laughing at the other girls
Who think they're so cool
We'll be out of here
As soon as we can
And then you're on you're very first date
And he's got a car and you're feeling like flying
And you're mama's waiting up
And you're thinking he's the one
And you're dancing 'round your room
When the night ends, when the night ends
Cause when you're fifteen and
Somebody tells you they love you
You're gonna believe them
When you're fifiteen and your first kiss
Makes your head spin 'round but
In your life you'll do things greater than
Dating the boy on the football team
But i didn't know it at fifteen
When all you wanted was to be wanted
Wish you could go back
And tell yourself what you know now
Back then i swore i was gonna marry him someday
But i realize some bigger dreams of mine
And Abigail gave everything
She had to a boy who changed his mind
And we both cried
Cause when you're fifteen and
Somebody tells you they love you
You're gonna believe them
And when you're fifteen
Don't forget to look before you fall
I've found time can heal most anything
And you just might find
Who you're supposed to be
I didn't know who i was supposed to be
At fifteen
Your very first day
Take a deep breath
As you walk through the doors
