23

I hope that I remember 23
I’m all grown up but I’ve still got my life ahead of me
I felt old at 21
But 23 came easy now I’ve never felt so young
23 the year I found her kiss
Been spending every night in Brooklyn tasting whiskey on her lips
And though I wish that this could last
The harder that I try to sooner it becomes the past
Cause days go by in the corner of my eye
But I hope my heart remembers 23
Years will pass and love it may not last
But I hope my heart remembers 23
Well I wish I had a picture for every day I’ve lived
And I could hang them all up on the wall
And I could look on 23 and smile at the memory
Of feeling like I had it all
I’m so afraid of turning 24
Cause every year that passes soon will lead to 20 more
And I hope that when I’m old
That I’ll still have a piece of 23 that I can hold
Chorus
