We were kings and queens with teenage dreams
90 proof in a jacked-up Pontiac
The backseat was steaming, we were just eighteen
You moved off to Memphis and you never came back
I don't know why I was just thinking of you today
And high school when everything was easy
Wasn't nothing to worry about
So cool, life was such a breeze back then
We couldn't wait until we got out
We've run a million miles to get away
And now we'd give anything for one more day
In high school
Let's reminisce about our first kiss
Dances, corsages and boutonnieres
Somewhere between "random" and "we almost planned it"
The hands of fate have brought us here
For me to say the things I always meant to say but I didn't say
In high school when everything was easy
Wasn't nothing to worry about
So cool, life was such a breeze back then
We couldn't wait until we got out
Now here we are, sitting here, over a couple of beers
Bringing back the years
In high school
Friday night, just a couple old friends
Laughing about, crying about
How we won some, we lost some
Been on top of the world and lonesome
Been knocked down but we're still standing, baby
Most likely to succeed
The prettiest girl I've ever seen
You've been a song in my heart everywhere I've been
I've been crazy 'bout you, girl, since way back when
In high school when everything was easy
Wasn't nothing to worry about
So cool, life was such a breeze back then
We couldn't wait until we got out
Raise a glass to love and regret
Things we've done and haven't done yet
In high school
High school
