When I was feeling 'bout sixteen
I never had no idea
Listen to me if you wanna know what I mean
Your expression will let me see

I never knew what I was looking for
I never had the time
And now that time has opened up my door
Now I'm looking forward just to see what, just what's mine

When I was feeling 'bout eighteen
It's then when I began to see
No matter how hard you push on the door
It won't open without the key

Opportunity only knocks once
If you shut it out it's a sin
And when something keeps right on poundin'
Then, my friend, you'd better let it in

Now I feel just a little bit old and sadness fills my brain
I can flash to future years and nothing is the same
Nothing is the same, nothing is the same
Nothing is the same
