Sweet seventeen, never been kissed    He had never known what he had missed    Laying in the grass, playing in the stars    Our hero makes his final trip to mars       Thoughts seems to change, now what's on his mind    Floating down a river wasting time    Playing in the mud, basking in the sun    At the O.K. Corral with his gun       And he's lost in a daydream    Never to return    A picture in the glowing embers burns    Let's the hours pass    Hours turn to years    He's smiling and no one really cares       He's gazing at the clouds    And he's drinking lemonade    Lean against a tree    And we're drowning in the shade    Staring in his eyes    But still he can't be seen    Then their lips meet for the first time    And this life's a dream       Under full moon, playing with his friends    At a time when nothing seems to end    Take a look around, isn't this great    At a time when growing up can wait       Thanks to stupidguy182@hotmail.com for these lyrics      Same old routines can get pretty boring    Got you caught in a rut    Small boys love all the small things    Life gets funny    Does the things that you're not       This life's a dream    Don't want to sleep    Cause I'm wide awake    And what a life
