Fifteen Years

Well would you look at you?
All grown up, I barely recognise myself
Green eyes and an empty bookshelf
Let me know that you're still me
I've been watching you for all these years
And I can tell you
Man, I'm so proud
You grew up with your head in the clouds and I love that
Just a down and out with a good heart like we aimed for from the start
Thank you for checking on our mother
I'm glad you love her like no other
And I've seen all your friends
Keep 'em around until the bitter end

Just remember
Through the years as the clouds roll in
That forever
We can brave the bad weather

I know you've had your ups and downs
Hey remember when that guy was pushing me around?
And I was just too scared to act
Now you tell me on the daily that you wish you could go back and help me
'Cause no one else there would
That means we grew up to be good
I guess we grew up to be kind
I guess I grew up to be someone that I really like
And I'm so sorry to hear about Liam
I just seen him the other day
I guess life goes well for some
And the others have a darker fate

Just remember
Through the years as the clouds roll in
That forever
We can brave the bad weather
It's been fifteen years
And oh how we've changed
It was a long road
But we made it out ok

Now don't get me wrong
I still have those sleepless nights where I remember that you made her cry or when
You got too drunk and your friends thought you might die
Yeah we've made mistakes and we'll live with shame but at the end of the day we're ok
Just keep trying to be better and help the others through bad weather
Help the others through bad weather

Yeah, yeah
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah

Just remember
Through the years as the clouds roll in
That forever
We can brave the bad weather
It's been fifteen years
And oh how we've changed
It was a long road
But we made it out ok
