Intro: verse 1 It was July and we were 17 Nothin' goin' on at the Dairy Queen So we drove to the river and he gave me his ring And I melted in his arms like my ice cream And nobody knows how far we went Except the river and me and the moon and him Sometimes I wanna go back again Hey girls you know what I mean Sometimes don't you wish you had a time machine Interlude verse 2 Maggie May on the radio One silhouette and the dash boards glows I hear that song and I still melt And it takes me back to the way we felt And nobody knows how far we went Except the river and me and the moon and him Sometimes I wanna go back again Hey girls you know what I mean Sometimes don't you wish you had a time machine Instrumental verse 3 I'd close my eyes and I'd say a prayer And I'd hit that button and I'd be right there And nobody knows how far we went Except the river and me and the moon and him Sometimes I wanna go back again Hey girls you know what I mean Sometimes don't you wish you could stay 17 Hey girls you know what I mean Sometimes don't you wish you had a time machine Hey girls you know what I mean Sometimes don't you wish you had a time machine A time machine, oh a time machine
