She's Got a Boyfriend Now lyrics

We were 17 and invincible

Had the world figured out and the girl on my shoulder told me

"Everything’s gonna be alright"

And everything was gonna be alright

Yeah, maybe we were in high school

But you never see the ending when you’re young, in love

Pretending singing, "everything’s gonna be alright"

And everything was gonna be alright

Buried her deep inside

Stars stuck in my eyes

Now she’s got a boyfriend and I’ve got a rock band

Guess nothing really ever goes the way it’s planned

She’s in Ohio and I’m on some back road

Driving to the city and then who knows

Guess that’s all she wrote

I wish that I could turn this car around

But she’s got a boyfriend now

Then I took a trip out to LA

For the girl with a smile that could take your breath away

I’m thinking, "everything’s gonna be alright"

And everything was gonna be alright

Maybe I thought I could sweep in

And sweep her off her feet and blow right back to Boston

Thinking, "everything's gonna be alright"

And everything was gonna be alright

The streets keep rolling on

But now she’s so far gone

Now she’s got a boyfriend and I’ve got a rock band

Guess nothing really ever goes the way it’s planned

She’s on the West Coast and I’m on some back road

Driving to the city and then who knows

Guess that’s all she wrote

I wish that I could turn this car around

But she’s got a boyfriend now

Take me back to you somehow with everything that I know

Now it’s so hard, I tore us apart

Take me back to feeling like the world would just keep

Dealing me the right cards, now you’re just so far

And I’m 23 and invincible

Got the world figured out and the bird on my shoulder told me

"Everything's gonna be alright"

But is everything gonna be alright?

Now she’s got a boyfriend and I’ve got a rock band

Guess nothing really ever goes the way it’s planned

She’s in Ohio and I’m on some back road

Driving to the city and then who knows

Guess that’s all she wrote

I wish that I could turn this car around

‘Cause there she goes

I wish that I could press rewind somehow

‘Cause she’s got a boyfriend now
