Throwing sticks and skipping stones
Broken hearts and broken bones
Bring 'em home and mama'd mend 'em
I stole a kiss she asked to stay
Man I thought I was Hemingway
I wrote a poem but I never sent it

You never know when something
Will never happen again

And it all goes by so fast
Nothing's made to last
And we've all been fooled together
Thinking we're gonna live forever
Yeah we're gonna live forever

Mini skirts and mini bars
My older brother's ID cards
Called my dad, said "come and get him"
I got a job and moved away
Thought I was ready for a change
Turned out I kinda missed them

Yeah I missed 'em hey hey hey

You never know when something
Will never happen again

And it all goes by so fast
Nothing's made to last
And we've all been fooled together
Thinking we're gonna live forever
Yeah we're gonna live forever

There's a wedding dress
And the children were next
And rainy days and baseball games
Then they're grown and they're gone
And you wish they were home
But you're left sitting all alone

Don't wish it away
That's the deal that we make
Oh yeah

And it all goes by so fast
Nothing's made to last
And we've all been fooled together
Thinking we're gonna live forever
(Don't wish it away)
Yeah we're gonna live forever
(Don't wish It away)
(Forever)
