Tomorrow I'm 18 years old and feel like my story's just getting told
How is it that time flew by before I said I was ready
To fly far away, and explore every day, and to find out why I'm here
To laugh, and to cry, to see new clear blue skies, and to start and close all my chapters
I'm not ready, I'm not ready
Will I ever be ready, ever be ready, oh
Just give me one more day being 17, its so comforting
Will I ever be ready, I wanna be ready
Flash forward a couple months and I'm leaving this very home
I'm watching the past play out in front of my very eyes
And all the lessons I've learned, all the secrets that unfolded, inside my ever-growing soul
All the songs that I now know, what speaks to my soul, and the pieces I glued to make me whole
I'm not ready, how can I be ready
Will I ever be ready, ever be ready, oh
Just give me one more day being 17, its so comforting
Will I ever be ready, I wanna be ready
Oh
Oh
I promise you'll be ready
You're gonna be ready
I promise you'll be ready
You're gonna be ready
You have always been ready, always been ready, oh
When you least expect it life will lead you to where you need to go
Just know that you're ready, you were born to be ready
Oh
Oh
Oh
