Your old house, it feels smaller
Will it fade out if we wait longer?
Quick trip down, just stopping by
I'm late now, but sometimes
I wanna be
16 at the park, parked in your dad's car
Dreaming, gonna grow up, be a big star
Best friends wanna get drunk in a backyard
So cool hanging out in the backyard
Girl talk, talk about boys like it's business
Mom's mad, gotta get home this instant
16, bittersweet, oh, so innocent
I guess, I guess I'm missing it
(Ooh-ooh-ooh, ah-ah-ah) I guess I'm missing it
(Ooh-ooh-ooh, ah-ah-ah) I guess I'm missing
Your old room, these walls look different
Nothing's new, just days and distance
And I'm freaked out the more I realize
It's gone now, but sometimes
I wanna be
16 at the park, parked in your dad's car
Dreaming, gonna grow up, be a big star
Best friends wanna get drunk in a backyard
So cool hanging out in the backyard
Girl talk, talk about boys like it's business
Mom's mad, gotta get home this instant
16, bittersweet, oh, so innocent
I guess, I guess I'm missing it
Guess I'm missing it
(Ooh-ooh-ooh, ah-ah-ah) being naive, little less behind me
(Ooh-ooh-ooh, ah-ah-ah) I didn't know
I didn't know a thing at 16
I wanna be 16
I wanna be 16
I wanna be, I wanna be
