I wanna sit down and talk to myself at seventeen
Tell him you're in for a long road
Between now and twenty-three
You're gonna meet a girl, you're gonna fall fast
She gonna wreck your world
And mess you up bad
And when she does, you better let her run
Or you'll end up just like me

I wish you would come back, kid
With that un-broke heart
When your rose-colored glasses
Were aimed at the stars
You were clueless, you were naïve and alive

Before your sky came down
And your world quit spinning
And love was something I still believed in
No, I don't know if I do now
But I did, so come back, kid

Wish you would come back, kid
I said come back, kid
I said come back, kid

I bet you'd remind me how I used to be
Back when ignorance was bliss
You'd tell me, she's just a girl, you gotta move on
She don't love you, get over it
You'd pick me back up 'cause I'm crashing down
Honestly, I need you so bad right now

I wish you would come back, kid
With that un-broke heart
When your rose-colored glasses
Were aimed at the stars
You were clueless, you were naïve and alive

Before your sky came down
And your world quit spinning
And love was something I still believed
No, I don't know if I do now
But I did, so come back, kid (come back, kid)

I said come back, kid
(Said come back, kid)

I wish you would come back, kid
With that un-broke heart
When your rose-colored glasses
Were aimed at the stars
You were clueless, you were naïve and alive

Before your sky came down
And your world quit spinning
And love was something I still believed in
No, I don't know if I do now
But I did, so come back, kid (so come back, kid)

I said come back, kid
(Said come back, kid)
I said come back, kid
Wish you would come back, kid
