Recently, I discovered a song called "Fifteen" by Taylor Swift while I was cruising on youtube. Have you ever heard a song that speaks to you and brings back memories? Well, this is one of those that I think everyone can relate to.
Being fifteen, we think we know so much about what the world. We think we know what we want and what we don't want. But as this song states, you don't know what half of what you think you know.
And its so true. You tell a boy that you love him, and you believe that it's love. You were meant for eachother and nothing and no one can tell you otherwise. You are fifteen and have your life figured out. Life couldn't be better.
Looking back, you realize that you hadn't figured out the meaning of life, You're not likely to marry the same boyfriend that you had when you were fifteen and you're not likely to understand why you may never marry that same boyfriend that you had when you were fifteen.
I love music that makes you remember how you felt at one point in your life, It can bring you back to a time in your life when your current life seems worlds apart. It can set you up, lift you up, fill you up with all those memories.
Here are the lyrics.. Fifteen by Taylor Swift
You take a deep breath and you walk through the doors
Its the morning of your very first day
you say hi to your friends you aint seen in a while
Try and stay out of everybodys way
its your freshman year and youre gonna be here
for the next four years in this town
hoping one of those senior boys will wink at you and say
you know I havent seen you around, before
Cause when youre fifteen and somebody tells you they love you
youre gonna believe them
and when youre fifteen
feeling like there nothing to figure out
well count to ten, take it in
this is life before who youre gonna be
fifteen
You sit in class next to a redhead named Abigail
and soon enough youre best friends
laughing at the other girls who think theyre so cool
well be out of here as soon as we can
and then youre on your very first date and hes got a car
and youre feeling like flying
and youre momas waiting up and you think hes the one
and youre dancing round your room when the night end
when the night ends
Cause when youre fifteen and somebody tell you they love you
youre gonna believe them
when youre fifteen and your first kiss
makes your head spin round but
in your life youll do greater than dating the boy on the football team
but I didnt know it at fifteen
When all you wanted was to be wanted
wish you could go back and tell yourself what you know now
Back then I swore I was gonna marry him someday
but I realized some bigger dreams of mine
and Abigail gave everything she had to a boy
who changed his mind and we both cried
Cause when youre fifteen and somebody tells you they love you
youre gonna believe them
and when youre fifteen, dont forget to look before you fall
Ive found that time can heal most anything
and you just might find who youre supposed to be
I didnt know who I was supposed to be at fifteen
La la la la la .. la la la la la . La la la la la
Youre very first day
take a deep breath girl
take a deep breath as you walk through those doors.
