Eighteen

I was only eighteen

Chasing dreams

And my mother screamed

Don't be thinking things

I wanted fame

But who's to blame?

That life felt good enough

For me to chase away

Away

But now that I have it all

I won't let you down, down, down, down, down

I'd give it all away, way, way, way, way

For another day with you

'Cause when the mirror starts to fall

I won't be around, 'round, 'round, 'round, 'round

You'll think of all the pain, pain, pain, pain, pain

That I've put you through

And maybe one day I'll be forgiven

And we'll go back to that place again

When I was only eighteen

Only eighteen

I had a picture

A great disaster in my mind

And the world would look at me

And love me through all disguise

But now that I'm older

I think of what I lost chasing time

I found disorder

Countin' pain in this life

This life

But now that I have it all

I won't let you down, down, down, down, down

I'd give it all away, way, way, way, way

For another day with you

'Cause when the mirror starts to fall

And I won't be around, 'round, 'round, 'round, 'round

You'll think of all the pain, pain, pain, pain, pain

That I've put you through

And maybe one day I'll be forgiven

And we'll go back to that place again

When I was only eighteen

Only eighteen

And maybe one day I'll be forgiven

For the pain I put you in

When I was only eighteen

Only eighteen

I was only eighteen
