Spent my last quarter on a new bike
Downhill, rode it fast to the seaside
Felt the ocean wash over my hands
Mom and dad had the very last big fight
Two homes and now I gotta pick a side
Took a moment but now I understand
Maybe I've cried
Maybe I've laughed
And maybe it's sad
It was the best year of my life
Yeah, I've been so mad
Yeah, I've been so reckless
But when I look back
It was the best year of my life
The best year of my life
I lost touch with some old friends
We grew apart, guess it happens
But I met people I'll never forget
I broke hearts 'til they broke mine
Made love in the moonlight
I've done things I'll never regret
Oh, and yes I've been a mess
Been a fool and tears did fall
But then again, at least I felt it all
Maybe I've cried
Maybe I've laughed
And maybe it's sad
It was the best year of my life
Yeah, I've been so mad
Yeah, I've been so reckless
But when I look back
It was the best year of my life
The best year of my life
The best year of my life
