We were young once,
Carefree,
Warmed by the sun,
Cooled by a breeze,
Thinking of nothing,
Considering everything,
Singing Taylor
And loving Twilight.

We were young once
As were you —
But we will be young
Forever —
Sorry for you.

We were young once,
Best friends forever —
Until boys
Or high school
Or college —
We were young once,
As were you —
We were young —
Once.
