Lyrics:
Seventeen, I knew everything
Gonna be a rockstar
Gonna see the world find a pretty girl
Marry her and be the king
Of everything under my sun
Gonna make it big gonna be someone
I was just a boy with a perfect plan
But sometimes life don't work like that
If only I could build me a time machine
I'd go back and tell myself some things
Like, "Buddy you don't have to move so fast
Roll down the window, take your foot off the gas
You'll get where your going when you do
Life ain't a race that you gotta win
It's more like a kite, blowing in the wind
Best you can do is hold on tight and hope
And here's a few more things that you should know"
"That shortcut won't save you time
There's a certain kind of beauty in a road that winds
And look up when your feeling down
Those clouds are gonna to blow right by you
And sure enough when they finally do
Thank the ones who held you through
Your darkest days and longest nights
When you do that your whole world is right
Just don't to let too much of your life go
Before you learn some lessons you really need to know"
"Like, buddy you don't have to move so fast
Roll down the window, take your foot off the gas
You'll get where your going when you do
Life ain't a race that you gotta win
It's more like a kite, blowing in the wind
Best you can do is hold on tight and hope
That's a few more things that you should know"
(instrumental break)
"Just slow down, don't run so fast
Some things fade and some things last
Life is easy when you find out which is which
It's all just a game you don't need to win
So go roll the dice and it is what it is
And when your days are done you'll be happy you did
Trust me, the time will come we'll both be happy you did"
