Wishing I Was 23 Lyrics


R5 Wishing I Was 23


Maybe she's just to old for me
Living in a teenage fantasy
Baby there's so much we could be
She's got me wishing
Wishing I was 23

Man she's crazy but I don't care
She's sexy and she's a millionare
The way she gets me is so unfair
(Not you're typical rich girl)

She's smoking hot, if you know what I mean
Tight jeans and she loves her photography
And everything that's inbetween
(She's been around the world)

I know
(She's graduated)
And I'm not
(Quite educated)
I'm young, you know
Age is overrated

Maybe she's just to old for me
Living in a teenage fantasy
Baby there's so much we could be
Everytime I'm with her
Calling me a dreamer

Maybe she's just out of my reach
Maybe her boyfriend's a marine
Even though I'm nameless (HEY!)
She's famous (HEY!)
She's got me wishing
Wishing I was 23

Woah-oh
Woah-oh-oh
Wishing I was 23
Woah-oh
I've got her wishing
Uh-yeah

I think about her everyday
Going insane thinking about what to say
What am I doing anyway?
(Am I even on her radar?)

I know
(She's graduated)
And I'm not
(Quite educated)
I'm young, you know
Age is overrated

Maybe she's just to old for me
Living in a teenage fantasy
Baby there's so much we could be
Everytime I'm with her
Calling me a dreamer

Maybe she's just out of my reach
Maybe her boyfriend's a marine
Even though I'm nameless (HEY!)
She's famous (HEY!)
She's got me wishing
Wishing I was 23

Woah-oh
Woah-oh-oh
Wishing I was 23
Woah-oh
I've got her wishing

And if I was older
She would let me take her
To watch the stars at night
We can dance we can kiss
Underneath moonlight

And if it got colder
She would let me hold her
Wrapped up in fairytales
Got to wake up from this dream

Maybe she's just to old for me
Maybe her boyfriend'd a marine
Even though I'm nameless
She's famous
She's got me wishing

Maybe she's just to old for me
Living in a teenage fantasy
Baby there's so much we could be
Everytime I'm with her
Calling me a dreamer

Maybe she's just out of my reach
Maybe her boyfriend's a marine
Even though I'm nameless (HEY!)
She's famous (HEY!)
She's got me wishing
Wishing I was 23

Woah-oh
Woah-oh-oh
Wishing I was 23
Woah-oh
I've got her wishing

Wishing she was 17 (17)

Woah-oh
Woah-oh-oh
Wishing I was 23 (23)
Wishing I was 23.
