First touch of summer, she's got your t-shirt on
Sun's going down, school's out, stars are coming on
You can rewind it, but you can't ever feel like you do tonight
Make a movie in your mind, but don't rush it
Boy, you're about to see the light
So hang on to the light in your eyes and the feeling
Hang on to your love-drunk original reason
Hang on to the small town you love, but you're leaving
Oh, you won't be a fool for so long
So hang on
If you listen to the voices inside, they won't do you wrong
You can look back over your shoulder, yeah, but don't look too long
It takes time to realize that your life's gonna pass you by
So hang on to the light in your eyes and the feeling
Hang on to your love-drunk original reason
So hang on to the small town you love, but you're leaving
'Cause you won't be a fool for so long (Hey)
Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh, these things, they take time
All these things take time, these things, they take time
All these things I've learned, it's never a straight line
'Cause all these things take time, these things, they take time
So hang on to the light in your eyes and the feelings
Hang on to your love-drunk original reasons
'Cause all these things take time, these things, they take time
And all these things I've learned, it's never a straight line
So hang on to the light in your eyes and the feeling
So hang on to your love-drunk original reason
So hang on to the small town you love, but you're leaving
Oh, you won't be a fool for so long
So hang on
Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh, these things, they take time
Yeah, hang on
Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh, these things, they take time
Hang on
All these things take time, these things, they take time
Hang on
Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh, these things, they take time
